Answer 1

Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we need to find 7% less of 40. The mark that the boy got is 1.07 times the passing mark. So:

40/1.07 = 37.3831775

Thus the answer is 37.

We can cross check this by multiplying 37 by 1.07 which gives us 40.

Answer 2

Answer:

marks obtained by boy = 40

total marks = 100

to find -  if he get 7% more than passing marks find the passing marks

solution

first lets find 7% of total marks

∴total marks = 100

7% of 100

7% × 100

7/100 × 100

= 7

7% of 100 is 7 marks

passing marks = 40 - 7 = 33 marks

∴ passing marks are 33.
