MCQ
Mark $(\checkmark)$ against the correct answer in the following:
In an examination it is required to get $36\%$ to pass. A student gets $160$ marks and fails by $20$ marks. The maximum marks are:
  • A
    $400$
  • B
    $450$
  • ✓
    $500$
  • D
    $600$
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
$500$

Let x be the maximum marks Pass marks $= (160 + 20) = 180$
$36\%$ of $x = 180$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{36}{100}\times\text{x}\Big)=180$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{180\times100}{36}\Big)$
$=(5\times100)=500$
Hence, maximum marks $= 500$
