Hi friend!

$<b><u><big><marquee direction="right" behavior="alternate"><big>Answer:</big></marquee></big></u></b>$

Maximum marks in a test $=x= 100\%$
Raja's marks = 76% of $x$
Seema's marks = 480

Seema's percentage = 100% - 76% = 24%
If 480 = 24% of x
$480 = \frac{24x}{100} \\ 48000 = 24x \\ x = \frac{48000}{24} \\ x = 2000$

$Therefore, the answer is option <i>(d) 2000</i>.$
