Question

Rosy got 41 out of 75 marks in one examination and 36 out of 60 in another examination.in which examination did she do better

Answer 1

Hey there !

Here's the answer !

Since the marks scored by her are of different totals we need to calculate the percentage to analyse her better.

Examination 1 :

Marks Scored : 41

Total Marks : 75

Percentage = ( 41 / 75 ) * 100

=> 4100 / 75 = 54.67 %

Examination 2 :

Marks scored 36

Total Marks = 60

Percentage = ( 36 / 60 ) * 100

=> 3600 / 60 = 60 %

Therefore her Examination 2 was having a higher percentage. Due to this we can say that Rosy had performed Examination 2 better than Examination 1.

Hope it helped !
