C
Percentage error is unit less
c $\%$ error $=\left(\frac{\text { measused }-\text { exact value }}{\text { exact value }} \times 100\right)$
Her, we are talking about ratio of same unit so from here we cansaly that - error is uniture.

The dimensions of the area $A$ of a black hole can be written in terms of the universal gravitational constant $G$, its mass $M$ and the speed of light $c$ as $A=G^\alpha M^\beta c^\gamma$. Here,
The acceleration due to gravity is measured on the surface of earth by using a simple pendulum. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are relative errors in the measurement of length and time period respectively, then percentage error in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is
The frequency $(v)$ of an oscillating liquid drop may depend upon radius $(r)$ of the drop, density $(\rho)$ of liquid and the surface tension $(s)$ of the liquid as : $v=r^{ a } \rho^{ b } s ^{ c }$. The values of $a , b$ and $c$ respectively are
