A student obtained 32% marks and he failed by 6 marks. If he had scored 36% marks, he would have been passed by 2 marks. What is the passing marks(score)?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
According to question ,
(36% - 32% ) of total marks =( 6 + 2 ) marks
4% of total marks = 8
1% of total marks = 2
Passing marks = 32% of total marks + 6
= 32 × 2 + 6 = 70
So , passing marks are 70.
