Question

In an annual examination rahul scoted 68 and failed by 13 marks .if the pass percentage was 45%.find the maximum marks

Answer 1

180 is the max marks

Answer 2

Marks scored by Rahul = 68
Marks required for Rahul to pass = 68+13 = 81

% of marks required to pass = 45

So, let the maximum marks be x.

45% of x = 81

45/100 * x = 81

              x = (81*20) / 9

              x = 9 * 20
              
              x = 180

Therefore, the maximum marks is 180. 

Hope this helpz :)
