      Ajay secured 30% in an exam but fell short of the

      passing mark by 60 marks, whereas Bijay scored 55% and exceeded the passing mark by 90 marks. Determine the passing marks.
      A 280 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 150 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 240 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let total marks be β€˜x’ According to the question, 0.3x + 60 = 0.55x – 90 Or, 0.55x – 0.30x = 90 + 60 Or, 0.25x = 150 Or, x = 600 Passing marks = (0.30 Γ— 600) + 60 = 240
