Question
In an examination, first division marks are 60%. A student secures 538 marks and misses the first division by 2 marks. Find the total marks of the examination.
Solution
Percentage for first division = 60%
A student secures 538 marks but misses the first division by 2 marks.
∴ Marks for first division = 538 + 2 = 540
∴ 60% of total marks = 540
`=> 60/100 xx "total marks" = 540`
`=> "total marks" = (540 xx 100)/60 = 900`
