Answer 2

She scored better marks in Maths by 13.33℅.

This can be solved as follows:

Since the total marks is different in both the cases, we solve it using the percentage.

Marks scored in English =35

Total marks= 50

Percentage of marks in English =(35/50)* 100%=70%

Marks scored in maths= 25

Total marks= 30

Percentage of marks scored in Maths =(25/30)* 100%=83.33%

Therefore,difference in percentage of marks obtained in both the subjects= 83.33-70 = 13.33%

So, she scored better marks in Maths by 13.33%.
