Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- Let the maximum marks be x.
Now the candidate scores 220 and fails by 11 marks.
Hence the passing marks will be (220+11)=231 marks.
Thus form the equation-33%of x=231
(33*x/100)=231
x=(231*100)/33
x=700.(ANS) - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- (220+11) = 33% of max. marks
231 = (33* max. marks)/100
max. marks = 700 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- since
33% = 220+11
1 = 231/33= 7
100---- 7 *100= 700 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 700 .
220 = (x × 33/ 100 ) - 11 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
