Question
If 35% are the passing marks. A student gets 200 marks yet fails by 24 marks. What is the maximum marks?Options560820640680
Solution
To solve this problem, we first need to find out how many marks the student needed to pass. The student got 200 marks and was short of 24 marks to pass. So, the passing marks would be 200 marks + 24 marks = 224 marks.
We know that these passing marks represent 35% of the total marks. We can use this information to find out the total marks. If 35% is equal to 224 marks, then 1% is equal to 224 marks ÷ 35 = 6.4 marks.
Therefore, the total marks (which is 100%) would be 6.4 marks * 100 = 640 marks.
So, the maximum marks are 640.
