Question

36% of the maximum marks is required to pass a test a student gets 123 marks and is declared failed by 39 marks find the maximum marks

Answer 1

123+39=passing marks so, 36% of x = 162 if maximum marks is x then , x = 450

Answer 2

Answer:

450

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the maximum marks be x

We are given that 36% of the maximum marks is required to pass a test

So, passing marks = 36% of x

We are given that a student gets 123 marks and is declared failed by 39 marks

So, passing marks = 123+39 = 162

So, $36\% \times x =162$

$\frac{36}{100}\times x =162$

$x =162\times \frac{100}{36}$

$x =450$

Hence the maximum marks is 450
