Question

Maya scored 42 out of 50 in a Maths test and 54 out of 60 in a science test. Find the percentage of marks in both subjects. In which subject did she perform better​

Answer 1

Answer:

If the score Maya is 42 out of 50 in maths and 54 out of 60 in science, then she scored 84% in maths and 90% in science and she performed better in science

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Marks scored in maths = 42

Total marks in maths = 50

Percentage of marks in maths =( marks scored / total marks) *100

That is,

$\frac{42}{50} *100\\\\= 42*2 \\\\= 84$

So she scored 84% in maths

Marks scored in science = 54

Total marks in science = 60

Percentage of marks in maths =( marks scored / total marks) *100

That is,

$\frac{54}{60} *100\\\\= \frac{9}{10} *100\\\\=9*10\\\\= 90$

So she scored 90% in science

So she performed better in science
