Question

A medical students has to secure 40% marks to pass
. He get 80 marks and fails by 60 marks, find the
maximum number of marks​

Answer 1

Answer:

350

Step-by-step explanation:

Marks = 80

Marks needed more = 60

TOTAL = 140

Therefore 140 = 40%

Therefore 80% = 140 × 2

= 280

Therefore 20% = 140 ÷ 2

= 70

Therefore 100% = 80% + 20%

= 280 + 70

= 350

Maximum marks = 350 (ans)

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the maximum no. of marks scored be x.

medical students score =40%.

Total marks scored=80 marks.

They fail by only 60 marks. i.e. there were 60 marks less in there total marks.

So,ATQ,

40% of x=(80+60).

40/100*x=140.

2x/5=140

2x=(140*5).

2x=700.

x=700/2

x=350.

.: Total marks scored be x=350 marks.
