Question

36% of the maximum marks are required to pass test.A student gets 123 marks and is declared failed by 39 marks.Find the maximum marks.

Answer 1

Marks a student got = 123
Failed by = 39
Therefore, pass marks = 123+39= 162
Marks req. to pass the test = 36% of max. marks
Let the max. marks be = x
162 = 36% of x
36/100 * x = 162
9/25 *x = 162
x = 162*25/9
x = 18*25
x = 450
Therefore. max. marks = 450

Answer 2

Hey Friend ☺

Let the total marks be x

A student got 123 marks and failed by 39 marks

So the maximum marks required to pass = 123 + 39

= 162

But 36% needed to pass

So

》36 % of x = 162

》36 % × x = 162

》36/100 × x = 162

》x = 162 × 100/36

》x = 18 × 25

》x = 450

So the total marks are 450 .

Hope it helps you ..!!
