In an exanination a candidate must havr 40 % marks but he got failed by 20 marks by getting only 220 marks. What are the maximum marks in the examination?
(A) 400 (B) 600
(C) 500 (D) 550
@ramzan,
We don't do homework here, but here's how to solve it.
220 = 40% of X
@PUNKEY,
Actually, it is 240 = 40% X since you have to add in the twenty the test taker was short.
