      marks while Q got 40% of total marks which is 22 more than passing marks. Find the total marks of the test.

      B 530 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 520 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 510 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total marks of the test be β€˜x’ Therefore, marks scored by P = 0.3x Therefore, passing marks of the test = 0.3x + 30 Marks scored by Q = 0.40x Also, passing marks of the test = 0.40x – 22 Therefore, 0.3x + 30 = 0.4x – 22 Or, 0.1x = 52 Or, x = 52/0.1 = 520 Therefore, total marks of the test = 520
