1. In order to pass an examination, a student is required to get 35% of the maximum marks. If a student scored a total of 381 marks and failed by 144 marks, determine the maximum marks for the examination.

  • A. 1,350
  • B. 1,350
  • C. 1,350
  • D. 1,350

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

ATQ, Needed marks to be passed is 381  +  144 = 525
As the student needs 35% of the maxium marks to pass
i.e. 525 =  35% of the maximum marks
So, 35% =  525 marks
     1% =  525/35 marks
   100% =  (525/35)*100 marks
        =  1500 Marks. ANS
