A physical quantity $X$ is related to four measurable quantities $a,\, b,\, c$ and $d$ as follows $X = a^2b^3c^{\frac {5}{2}}d^{-2}$. The percentange error in the measurement of $a,\, b,\, c$ and $d$ are $1\,\%$, $2\,\%$, $3\,\%$ and $4\,\%$ respectively. What is the percentage error in quantity $X$ ? If the value of $X$ calculated on the basis of the above relation is $2.763$, to what value should you round off the result.
