Answer 2

AnswEr:

GivEn:

• Passing Marks (in percentage) = 40%
• Marks scored by candidate = 190
• Required Marks to passed out = 10

To Find:

• Total number of Marks - ?

$\\ \huge\red{\underline{\sf{ Solution:-}}}$

Let assume the total marks in the examination be x.

Passing Marks = 190 + 10

$\implies\sf{ 200}$

So,

40% of x = 200

If we divide the fraction by 20;

$\implies {\sf{ \dfrac{ \cancel{40}^2}{ \cancel{100}^5} \times x = 200 }} \\ \\ \implies\sf{x = \dfrac{ \cancel{200}^{100} \times 5}{ \cancel{2}} } \\ \\ \implies\sf{x = 100 \times 5} \\ \\ \implies \sf{ 500}$

Hence,

The Total Marks in the examination will be 500.
