      marks while Q got 44% of total marks which is 20 more than passing marks. Find the total marks of the test.
      A 220 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 230 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 240 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total marks of the test be โ€˜xโ€™ Therefore, marks scored by P = 0.26x Therefore, passing marks of the test = 0.26x + 25 Marks scored by Q = 0.44x Also, passing marks of the test = 0.44x โ€“ 26 Therefore, 0.26x + 25 = 0.44x โ€“ 20 Or, 0.18x = 45 Or, x = 45/0.18 = 250 Therefore, total marks of the test = 250
