Heya,

According to the question,

Mack required percentage = 40%
Total number of marks he got = 190
He failed by 10 marks.

So, total marks needed to pass = 190 + 10
= 200

As it is said that 40% is needed to pass so 200marks is the 40% of the total marks.

1% of total marks = 200/40 = 5 marks

So, 100% of marks = 5×100
= 500 Marks

So, the maximum marks that he could have gotten will be 500marks.

Hope this helps....:)
