Rahul scored 75% marks in his board exams comprising 5 subjects. He applied for re-evaluation and got 25 marks in one subject, and 5 marks less in another subject. For the remaining three subjects, the marks were unchanged. What is his new percentage?
75
77
79
70
55
Read Solution (Total 13)
-
- let each subject carries 100 marks then
total marks for 5 subjects=500
rahul scored 75% of 500=375
after re-evaluation he got 375+25-5=395
therfore 375/500*100=79%
so answer is option C - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(2)
- consider 75 % in each sub
25 increase and 5 less ie 20 increase in total
distribute 20 in 5 sub ie 4 increement of marks in each sub
75+4 =79 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 5subjects each subject 100 marks total=500
he got 75% 75%of500=375
total marks=375+25-5=395
average=395/5=79 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- total marks obtained before evaluation=(75*5)=375
new total marks after evaluation=(375+25-5)=395
new percentage=(395/5)%=79% - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 79 is the answer
- 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 79%
for 5 subjects total=500
75% of 500= 375
375+25-5=395
395/500=.79=79% - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Let us assume he got equal marks in all subjects that is 75.
Now in one subject he got 25 marks more and in one subject 5 marks less remaining three subject unchanged.
Hence, 75+75+75+100+70=395
(395/5)*100=79%. - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- ans:79%
25 marks gained and 5 marks losted
so total marks gain=25-5=20 marks
for total 5 subjects 20 marks were increased so the new avg is 75+20/5=75+4
=79 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- total marks he got before revaluation is 75%*5=375
Total marks incremental after Reval is =25-5=20
So after Reval total marks =375+20=395
So%=39500/500=79 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- five subjects
consider each subject is equal to 100 marks then total=500
he got 75% 75%of 500=375
total marks=375+25-5=395
average=395/5=79 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let all marks be 100..that is 75%.
After revaluation,he gained 25-5=20 marks..
The increased mark i.e 20 can be converted as percentage..as 4%(since 20/100=4%)
so..now..add both values..75%+4%=79%.. - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- >Sum of 5 subjects/ 5=75
>Sum of 5 subjects= 75*5........(1)
After re-evaluation,
New sum of 5 subjects= (75*5)+25-5=395
Therefore, new percentage= 395รท5= 79 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let every sub=100
total marks=5*100=500
75% of 500=375
new marks=375+25-5=395
395/500*100=79% - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
