$\large\orange{\boxed{\tt AnsweR }}$

Let the maximum marks be x

85% of x= 425

$\frac{85}{100} x = 425$

$x = \frac{425 \times 100}{85} = 500$

Hence, The maximum marks = 500

Answer 2

Let the maximum marks be x

85% of x= 425

\frac{85}{100} x = 425

100

85

x=425

x = \frac{425 \times 100}{85} = 500x=

85

425×100

=500

Hence, The maximum marks = 500
