Question

The marks obtained by three students in a test are in the ratio of 2 : 3:4.
If maximum marks obtained among them is 36 then it is how much percent
of the sum of the marks obtained by them?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

44.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let marks of 3 students be 2x, 3x, 4x

Sum of marks = 9x

Maximum marks has to be of 3rd student as his ratio is 4 parts.

Hence, 4x = 36

x = 9

Sum of marks = 9x = 9×9 = 81

% = (36/81) × 100 = 44.44%
