Question

Kavyansh gets 99 marks in her exam. This amounts to 66% of the total marks. Find the maximum marks.​

Answer 1

Let the maximum marks be x.

66% of total marks = 99.

According to condition,

66% of x = 99

or, 66/100 × x = 99

or, 66x/100 = 99

or, 66x = 99×100

or, 66x = 9900

or, x = 9900/66

or, x = 150

Hence, the maximum marks is 150.
