    A candidate who gets 24% marks fails by 12 marks but another candidate who gets 46% marks gets 14% more than the passing marks. Find the maximum marks.

    A 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 150 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Passing % = 46% - 14% = 32% Let the maximum marks be x. According to question, => 32% of x – 24% of x = 12 => 8% of x = 12 => x = 150
