$A$ cuboid has volume $V = l \times l \times \sqrt{l} = l^{2.5}$, where $l$ is the length of one side. When the length $l$ is measured by a meter scale of least count $1 \text{ mm}$, the relative percentage error in the measurement of its volume is $6.25\%$. Then the relative percentage error in measurement of its length and the value of the length $l$ is:

  • A
    $2\%$ and $2 \text{ cm}$
  • B
    $5\%$ and $4 \text{ cm}$
  • C
    $8\%$ and $3.6 \text{ cm}$
  • D
    $1\%$ and $3 \text{ cm}$
