A double inclined plane as shown in the figure has fixed horizontal base and smooth faces with the same angle of inclination of \(30^{\circ}\). A block of mass \(300 \mathrm{~g}\) is on one face and is connected by a cord passing over a frictionless pulley to a second block of mass \(200 \mathrm{~g}\) kept on another face. The acceleration with which the system of the blocks moves is ........ \% of acceleration due to gravity.
