Gɪᴠᴇɴ :-

• In an examination, a student must get 40% marks to pass.

• Another student who gets 250 marks,fails by 14 marks.

Tᴏ Fɪɴᴅ :-

• The maximum marks.

Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ :-

• Let maximum marks be x.

• Therefore,

$\sf\large\red{➯\: \frac{40}{100} \times x = 250 + 14}$

$\sf\large\red{➯\: \frac{40}{100} \times x = 264}$

$\sf\large\red{➯\:x = \frac{264 \times 100}{40} = 660 }$

• Therefore,

${\boxed{{\bf{∴Maximum\:marks = 660}}}}$
