    Solution

    ATQ, Let the maximum marks of the exam be '100x' ATQ: Passing marks of the exam = 100x X 0.5 + 16 = 100x X 0.85 - 68 Or, 50x + 16 = 85x - 68 Or, 35x = 84 Or, x = (84/35) = (12/5) Therefore, the maximum marks of the exam = 100x = 100x X (12/5) = 240 Required passing marks = 240 X 0.5 + 16 = 120 + 16 = 136
