    Solution

    ATQ, Let the maximum marks be 100m Marks scored by Simran = 25% of 100m = 0.25├Ч100m=25m. So, Passing marks = 25m+50 ------------- (I) Marks scored by Neil = 40% of 100m = 0.4├Ч100m=40m. So, Passing marks = 40m+20 -------------- (II) Comparing equation (I) and (II): 25m+50=40m+20 40mтИТ25m=50тИТ20 15m=30 m=2 Put the value of m=2 in equation (I), Passing marks=(25├Ч2)+50=100
