In an experiment for determination of the focal length of a thin convex lens, the distance of the object from the lens is $10 \pm 0.1 \mathrm{~cm}$ and the distance of its real image from the lens is $20 \pm 0.2 \mathrm{~cm}$. The error in the determination of focal length of the lens is $n \%$. The value of $n$ is. . . . . . .
