Question

in an exam examination in student was 40% of the total marks to pass if Rupa gets 185 marks and failed by 15 marks the total number is

Answer 1

So, pass marks=185+15=200
Let the total marks be x.
So (40/100)x=200
So x= 500.

Answer 2

Hey there!

Passing marks =185 + 15=200

Let 'x' be the Total marks

Then, 

40/100 × x = 200
40x = 20000

x = 20000/40
   = 500

Therefore,
Total marks is 500...
