Durring Searle's experiment, zero of the Vernier scale lies between $3.20 \times 10^{-2} m$ and $3.25 \times 10^{-2} m$ of the main scale. The $20^{\text {th }}$ division of the Vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. When an additional load of $2 \ kg$ is applied to the wire, the zero of the Vernier scale still lies between $3.20 \times 10^{-2} m$ and $3.25 \times 10^{-2} m$ of the main scale but now the $45^{\text {th }}$ division of Vernier scale coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The length of the thin metallic wire is $2 m$. and its cross-sectional area is $8 \times 10^{-7} m ^2$. The least count of the Vernier scale is $1.0 \times 10^{-5} m$. The maximum percentage error in the Young's modulus of the wire is
