Solution
To solve this problem, we first need to find the total marks obtained by Rahul in Class 9th, 8th, and 5th, and then the total marks obtained in Class 10th and 7th.
The total marks for Class 9th, 8th, and 5th are 385 + 390 + 490 = 1265. The total marks for Class 10th and 7th are 482 + 450 = 932.
We are asked to find by what percent the total marks in Class 9th, 8th, and 5th is more than the total marks in Class 10th and 7th.
The difference between these two totals is 1265 - 932 = 333.
To find this as a percentage of the total marks in Class 10th and 7th, we divide 333 by 932 and multiply by 100, which gives us approximately 35.73%.
So, the total marks obtained by Rahul in Class 9th, 8th, and 5th is 35.73% more than the total marks obtained in Class 10th and 7th together.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. 35.73%.
