Answer 2

$\fontsize{18}{10}{\textup{\textbf{The total marks is 600 and pass is 40 percent}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total marks be x

Pass marks =

36%of x+24 = 43%of x-18

=>7% of x =42

=>7*x/100=42

=>x=42*10/7

=>x=600

Pass marks= 36% of x+24

=36*600/100 +24

=240

Pass percentage= 240*100/600

=40%
