To pass an examination
48% of marks are needed Rahul gets 168 marks and fails by
36 marks. What are the maximum marks?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the maximum marks be x.

Atq,

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 48\% \: of \: x = 168 + 36\\ = > \frac{48}{100} \times x = 204 \\ = > \frac{12x}{25} = 204 \\ = > 12x = 25 \times 204 \\ = > x = \frac{25 \times 204}{12} \\ = > x = 25 \times 17 \\ = > x = 425$

Hence, the maximum marks is 425.
