Question:

Geeta scored 30% and failed by 50 marks, while Sandeep who scored 45% marks, got 25 marks more than the minimum marks required to pass the examination. How many marks did Vimal get if he scored 64% marks ?

Options:

500

256

320

436

Correct Answer:

320

Explanation:

( 45% - 30% ) of Total marks = 50 + 25

15% of Total marks = 75

Total Marks = \(\frac{100}{15}\) × 75 = 500

Now ,

64% of Total marks =\(\frac{16}{25}\) × 500 = 320

So , Marks scored by Vimal = 320
