The pressure on a square plate is measured by measuring the force on the plate and the length of the sides of the plate by using the formula `P=(F)/(l^(2))`. If the maximum errors in the measurement of force and the length are 4% and 2% respectively and the maximum error in the measurement of pressure is x %, then the value of x is.
