$Assertion$ : The error in the measurement of radius of the sphere is $0.3\%$. The permissible error in its surface area is $0.6\%$.
$Reason$ : The permissible error is calculated by the formula $\frac{\Delta A}{A} = \frac{4\Delta r}{r}$.

  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • C
    If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
