its means person gets 297 marks which is the 33% of 900

where 45 marks marks extra require to students means as

297+45=342.

passing marks require =342

passing marks % =( 342÷900)100 =38. % Hope it helps you

Answer 2

Answer:

Calculating the student's marks:

33% = $\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3}$ (900) = 300

Given that the student fails by 45 marks.

Hence, the pass mark is 345.

Pass percentage = $\frac{345}{900}$ (100) = $\frac{345}{9}$

                                                                                  = 38.33%
