Answer 2

Answer:

500 marks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the maximum marks be 'x'.

Here, he requires 200 marks to pass.

This is the 40% of the maximum marks .

Therefore, 40/100 * x = 200

                                    = 200 * 100/40

                                  x = 500

Therefore, the marks which can be obtained is 500.

This is your answer.
