A candidate who scored 32% of the total marks failed the exam by 6 marks. Another candidate who scored 44% marks scored 10% more than the passing marks. Find total marks
Solution (2) 75 Passing marks = p, total marks = t 0.32t +6 = p…..(1) And 1.1p = 0.44t (10% more than passing marks = 1.1p ) Hence p =0.4 t Now from (1) 0.32t+6 =0.4t 0.08 t = 6 t= 75
