Climb gradient questions.

Firstly, I Remember reading that for a 2 engine aircraft with one engine out, the climb gradient shall not be less than 2.4%. Is this correct?
Secondly I believe most SIDs require a climb gradient of 3.3%, now if the SID requires a climb gradient of 7%, how do I know if I can make this?
Single engine is okay, since you have an engine out SID in that case.

May be a stupid ques for a lot of you, I would appreciate the help nevertheless.
