Sushil got 103 marks in Hindi, 111 marks in Science, 98 marks in Sanskrit, 110 marks in Maths and 88 marks in English. If the maximum marks of each subject q are equal and if Sushil scored 85 percent marks in all the subjects together, what are the maximum marks of each subject?
Correct Answer: Description for Correct answer:
Let maximum marks in all subjects = x
Sushil's percentage
= \( \Large \frac{Total marks in all subjects}{ Maximum marks in all subjects} \) X 100
85 = \( \Large \frac{103 + 111 + 98 + 110 + 88 }{x} \) X 100
85x = 510 X 100
x = \( \Large \frac{510 X 100}{85} \) = 600
Maximum marks of all subjects = 60
Maximum marks for each subject
= \( \Large \frac{Maximum marks of all subjects}{ Total numbers of subjects} \)
Therefore Maximum marks of each subject = \( \Large \frac{600}{5} \)
= 120
