    Solution

    ATQ, Let the maximum marks be 100m. Marks scored by Amit = 10% of 100m = 0.1Γ—100m=10m. So, Passing marks = 10m+70 ------------- (I) Marks scored by Lisa = 30% of 100m = 0.3Γ—100m=30m. So, Passing marks = 30m+30 -------------- (II) Comparing equation (I) and (II): 10m+70=30m+30 30mβˆ’10m=70βˆ’30 20m=40 m=2 Put the value of m=2 in equation (I), Passing marks=(10Γ—2)+70=90
