Given :-
Total marks of theory exams = 200
Total marks of practical = 50
Marks secured in 1st theory exam = 65%
Marks secured in 2nd theory exam = 82%
Total percentage secured = 78%
To Find :-
Marks obtained in practical exam
Solution :-
Overall total = 100 + 100 + 50 = 250
He got 78% in total
= 78 % of 250
= 78/100 × 250
= 39 × 5
= 195
=> He got 195 out of 250
Total marks obtained in 1st theory exam
= 65% of 100
= 65/100 × 100
= 65
Total marks obtained in 2nd theory exam
= 82% of 100
= 82/100 × 100
= 82
Let the total marks obtained in practical exam be x
According to question,
65 + 82 + x = 195
=> 147 + x = 195
=> x = 195 - 147
=> x = 48
Therefore, he obtained 48 marks out of 50 in the practical exam.
