Question
In a test, minimum passing percentage for reserved and unreserved category is 40% and 54% respectively. A candidate from unreserved category secured 300 marks and failed by 24 marks. What are the minimum passing marks of reserved category in that test?
Options:
A .  280
B .  254
C .  230
D .  240
E .  None of these
Answer: Option D


let the maximum marks be x.

54% of x = 300 + 24

=> x * 54/100 = 324

=> x = 324 * 100/54 = 600

Required minimum marks

= 40 * 600/100  = 240
