Question

a student must get 40% marks to pass in an exam.A student gets 30 marks and fails by 6 marks.what are the maximum marks of the exam?​

Answer 1

Answer:-

Required percentage = 40%

Student gets = 30 marks

Fails by = 6 marks

Passing marks = 30 + 6 = 36 marks

Let the total marks be = x

Passing percentage = 40% of x

Passing marks = 36 marks

=》 $\tt{\frac{40}{100} x = 36}$

=》 $\tt{x = 90\:marks}$

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\huge{Hi!}}$

$\sf{Passing\:percentage = 40 \%}$

$\sf{Student\:achieves = 30\:marks}$

-》$\sf{The\:student\:fails\:by\:6\:marks}$

$\sf{Passing\:marks\:becomes = 36}$

$\sf{Passing\:marks = Passing\: \%}$

Let the total marks be = x

$40\% \: of \: x \: = 36$

$\frac{40}{100} x = 36 \\ \\ = > x = 36 \times \frac{100}{40} \\ \\ = > x = 90$

$\tt{\therefore\:The\:total\:marks = 90\:marks}$
