A road in a hilly terrain is to be laid at a gradient of $4.5\%$. A horizontal curve of radius $100\:m$ is laid at a location on this road. Gradient needs to be eased due to combination of curved horizontal and vertical profiles of the road. As per IRC, the compensated gradient (in $\%$, round off to one decimal place), is _______.
