As candidate got 125 marks and failed as he is short by 15 marks to get pass and pass percentage is 35%
So Total marks required is 125+15 =140
Therefore to get 35% we need 140
So full marks = 140/35% = 400 marks
So required answer is 400 marks
So Total marks required is 125+15 =140
Therefore to get 35% we need 140
