A student gets 200 marks yet fails by 24 marks. If the passing mark is 35%, then what is the maximum mark?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Total marks required to pass = 200 + 24 = 224
Passing Percentage = 35%
Therefore,
35% of Maximum Marks = 224
Maximum Marks = \(\frac{224}{35}\) × 100 = 640
