A resistance is measured by the voltmeter- ammeter method employing d.c. excitation and a voltmeter of very high resistance connected directly across the unknown resistance. If the voltmeter and ammeter readings are subject to maximum possible errors of $$ \pm 2.4\% $$ and $$ \pm 1.0\% $$ respectively, then the magnitude of the maximum possible percentage error in the value of resistance deduced from the measurement is nearly
A
$$1.4$$%
B
$$1.7%$$%
