Answer 1

Heya friend !!!

First we will take out the practical part .

$\mathsf{So, marks \: in \: practical \: part \: = \frac{20}{100}×100}$

=> 20 marks .

As we have got the marks that is present in practical for 100 marks is 20 marks . The marks in theory is 80 marks. So, we got ,

Theory = 80

Practical = 20

Marks scored by candidate in theory = 65%

Marks scored by candidate in practical = 80%

Marks scored by candidate in theory in no.

$=> \frac{65}{100}×80$

=> 52 marks .

Marks scored by candidate in practical in no.

$=> \frac{80}{100}×20$

=> 16 marks .

Total marks got = 52+16 = 68 marks .

$\mathsf{\therefore{, The \: Candidate \: got \: 68 \: marks }}$

Hope it helps friend !
