We measure the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum. In successive measurements, the readings turn out to be $2.63 \;s , 2.56 \;s , 2.42\; s , 2.71 \;s$ and $2.80 \;s$. Calculate the absolute errors, relative error or percentage error.

A physical quantity $P$ is related to four observables $a, b, c$ and $d$ as follows: $P=\frac{a^{2} b^{2}}{(\sqrt{c} d)}$ The percentage errors of measurement in $a, b, c$ and $d$ are $1 \%, 3 \%, 4 \%$ and $2 \%$ respectively. What is the percentage error in the quantity $P$ ? If the value of $P$ calculated using the above relation turns out to be $3.763,$ to what value should you round off the result?
