Question

A student has to secure minimum 35% marks to pass in an examination. If he gets 200 marks and fails by 10 marks, then the maximum marks are

Options:

A . 500

B . 400

C . 600

D . 300

Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)
Let the maximum marks be x.
According to the question,
35% of x = 200 +10 ⇒ ${35x}/100 = 210$
x = ${210 × 100}/35 = 600$
Using Rule 24,
a = 35%, b = 200, c = 10
Maximum Marks = ${100 × (b + c)}/a$
= ${100(200 + 10)}/35$ = 600 Marks
