The relative density of the material of ...

The relative density of the material of body is the ratio of it's weight in air and to the apparent loss of it's weight in water. By using a spring balance. The weight of body measured in air is `(5.00+0.05)` N. The weight of the body measured in water is found to be `(4.00 pm 0.05)` N. Then the maximum possible percentage error in relative density is

A
