Question

Mack requires 40 % to pass. If he gets 190 marks and falls short by 10 marks, what are the maximum marks he could have got?

Answer 1

500 marks because if you add 190 plus ten you get 200 and if 200 equals forty percent just take 200 over 40 which equals five so five equals 1 percent. So if five equals one percent take 5 times 100 to find 100 percent which would equal 500 marks.
