Question

in an examination it is required to get 40% of the aggregate marks to pass a student get 261 marks and is declared failed by 4% marks what are the maximum aggregate marks a student can get

Answer 1

A gets 261 but still failed by 4% marks that means A scored
=40-4
=36% marks becouse the passing criteria is 40% marks.

Therefore we can say
261=[36/100]P
where P is the passing marks.
So,
P=[261x100]/36 
P=725

So, the passing marks was 725
