Answer 1

Given :
Required percentage to pass = 33%
Marks scored by the student = 125 marks
Failed by 40 marks
To find : Maximum marks
Solution :
In order to pass the student had to score 40 marks more than the marks he scored
Hence, passing marks = 125 + 40 = 165
(165 is 33% of the maximum marks)
Let X be the maximum marks that can be scored
By the given condition,
33% of X = 165
33/100 × X = 165
33X = 165 × 100
X = 16500/33
X = 500
Ans) The maximum marks that can be scored is 500 marks
