Physics Question from JEE Main 2025 · 28 January, Shift 1

A tiny metallic rectangular sheet has length and breadth of $5 \, \text{mm}$ and $2.5 \, \text{mm}$, respectively. Using a specially designed screw gauge which has pitch of $0.75 \, \text{mm}$ and $15$ divisions in the circular scale, you are asked to find the area of the sheet. In this measurement, the maximum fractional error will be $\frac{x}{100}$, where $x$ is:
