Answer 2

Answer:

Maximum marks are 500

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have given in the question that student has to score 33% of the total marks to pass the exam and 1 student got 125 points and fail by 40 points

I.e. at 165 points he gets a pass.

Therefore 165 must be 33% of the total marks
