Question
Asha got 86.875% marks in the annual examination. If she got 695 marks, find the total number of marks of the examination.
Solution
Let x be the total number of marks of the examination .
Then, 86 . 875 % of x = 695
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{86 . 875}{100}x = 695\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = \frac{695 \times 100}{86 . 875}\]
\[ = 800\]
∴ The total number of marks of the examination is 800.
