Answer 1

hey mate

here is your answer

let the maximum marks be x

thus ,

the 60% of the total marks would be equal to (215+10=225) 225 marks

given:

=>60/100* x=225

=>3/5*x=225

=>3x=225*5

=>x=225*5/3

=>x=75*5

=>x=375

therefore, the maximum marks in the exam is 375.

Answer 2

HEY MATE HERE IS UR ANSWER

THE MARKS SHE SCORED = 215

GIVEN THAT IF SHE SCORED 10 MORE MARKS SHE WOULD HAVE GOT 60% OF TOTAL MARKS

SO

215+10 = 225

NOW ITS SAID 225 IS 60% OF TOTAL MARKS

LET THE TOTAL MARK OF EXAM = X

SO WE HAVE

$\frac{225}{x} \times 100 = 60 \: percentage$

22500/ X = 60%

22500 = 60x

X = 22500/60

X = 375

THEREFORE THE TOTAL MARKS =

375 MARKS

HOPE IT'S HELPFUL IF YES PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST IIIIIII
