Question

The ratio of connie's score to huda's score in a maths test was 8 : 11. Dan scored 36 marks more han connie and 12 marks more than huda. What was huda's score?

Answer 1

let say dan's marks =X

so connie's marks= X-32

and hund's marks =X-12

now by using given condition

8/11 = x-32/x-12

you can find x= 85.33

so hund's marks will be 85.33-12=73.33

Answer 2

Answer:

Huda's score was 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of connie's score to huda's score in a maths test was 8 : 11

Let Dan scored x marks in math test.

Dan scored 36 marks more than connie's

Connie's scored = x-36

Dan scored 12 marks more than Huda's

Huda's scored = x-12

Ratio of connie score to huda score was 8:11

$\dfrac{x-36}{x-12}=\dfrac{8}{11}$

$11(x-36)=8(x-12)$

$11x-396=8x-96$

$11x-8x=396-96$

$3x=300$

$x=100$

Connie's scored = x-36 = 100-36 = 64

Thus, Huda's score was 64.
