An experiment is performed to obtain the value of acceleration due to gravity $g$ by using a simple pendulum of length $L$. In this experiment time for $100\, oscillations$ is measured by using a watch of $1\, second$ least count and the value is $90.0\, seconds$. The length $L$ is measured by using a meter scale of least count $1\, mm$ and the value is $20.0\, cm$. The error in the determination of $g$ would be ........... $\%$
