Marks scored by A and B in a test are in the ratio 15:7
respectively. If B had scored 10 more marks, then marks scored by A would be 25% more than that of B. Find the difference between actual marks scored by A and B.Solution
Let actual marks scored by A and B be 15x and 7x respectively. Difference between the marks scored by A and B = 15x – 7x = 8x According to question, => (7x + 10) × 1.25 = 15x => 8.75x + 12.5 = 15x => 6.25x = 12.5 => x = 2 Required difference = 8x = 16
