the percentage require to pass in a paper is 40% which is equal 60 marks.what is the total marks of the paper

Answer 1

let total marks =x
A.T.P
40% of x=60
or, 40x/100=60
or,40x=6000
or, x=6000/40=150

Answer 2

let the no. be X
        40/100 x X=60
                     
 X=60 x 100/40= 3 x 100/2
      3 x 100/2= 300/2
       =150
 
to check=40% of 150
40/100 x 150= 40/2 x 3
120/2=60          which is correct!
