Question
In a certain examination, Neha got 46% and was 10 marks
short of passing. Kunal got 52% and scored 8 marks more than required. What are the passing marks?Solution
ATQ,
Let the total marks be 100x
Neha’s marks = 0.46 × 100x = 46x
Passing marks = 46x + 10
Kunal’s marks = 0.52 × 100x = 52x
Passing marks = 52x - 8
So, 46x + 10 = 52x - 8
⇒ 6x = 18
⇒ x = 3
Passing marks = 46x + 10 = 46 × 3 + 10 = 138 + 10 = 148
