Answer:
300 marks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets take
Maximum mark of examination = y
Student get 31 % mark and fails by 12 mark.
Passing mark is 35 %
So
Obtained mark = Passing mark - fails by mark
(3 /100) y = (35 /100) y - 12
0.31 y = 0.35 y -12
0.35 y - 0.31 y = 12
0.04 y = 12
y = 300
It means that Maximum mark of examination is 300 marks.
