Answer 2

Answer:

375 (hope i am right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total Maximum Marks be x

Marks scored by Shanta = 215

If she would have got 10 more marks,

Marks scored by Shanta = 215 + 10 = 225

According To Question,

If she had gotten 10 more marks, then she would have scored 60% of the total marks

=> 60% of x = 225

=> x * 60÷100 = 225

=> x = 225*100÷60 = 375
