50% marks got 20 marks more than the minimum pass marks. find the maximum marks and minimum pass marks​

Answer 1

Answer:

max 200 and min 80 is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Maximum marks-200 and minimum marks-80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the maximum marks be x and minimum marks be y

25% of maximum marks=25/100 of x=x/4

According to the question

x/4=y-30       (1)

Also, 50% of max marks=50/100 of x=x/2

x/2=y+20      (2)

(1)-(2)

x/4-x/2=y-30-y-20

or x=200

Similarly, y=80

Hence maximum marks=200

Minimum marks=80
