The relative density of the material of a body is found by weighing it first in air and then in water. If the weight in air is $(5.00 \pm 0.05) \ N$ and the weight in water is $(4.00 \pm 0.05) \ N$,then the relative density along with the maximum permissible percentage error is:

  • A
    $5.0 \pm 11\%$
  • B
    $5.0 \pm 1\%$
  • C
    $5.0 \pm 6\%$
  • D
    $1.25 \pm 5\%$
