In a 5 m deep vertical cylindrical tank, water is filled up to a level of 3 m from the bottom and the remaining space is filled with oil of specific gravity 0.88. Assume density of water as 1000 kg/m³ and acceleration due to gravity to be 10 m/s². The gauge pressure (in kN/m², rounded off to the first decimal place) at a depth of 2.5 m from the top of the tank will be ______
