Three students $S_{1}, S_{2}$ and $S_{3}$ perform an experiment for determining the acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ using a simple pendulum. They use different lengths of pendulum and record time for different number of oscillations. The observations are as shown in the table.

In an experiment to find acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ using simple pendulum, time period of $0.5\,s$ is measured from time of $100$ oscillation with a watch of $1\;s$ resolution. If measured value of length is $10\; cm$ known to $1\; mm$ accuracy. The accuracy in the determination of $g$ is found to be $x \%$. The value of $x$ is
