Q:

At an examination in which maximum marks are 500. K got 10% less than L, L got 25% more than M and M got 20% less than N. If K got 360 marks what percentage of marks was obtained by N ?

A) 80 B) 87
C) 78 D) 76
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 80

Explanation:

Let marks obtained by N = x

M's marks = 0.80x

L's marks = 1.25 (0.80x)

K's marks = (0.90) (1.25) (0.80x)

= 0.9x

But 0.9x = 360 ⇒ x = 400

Percentage of Marks obtained by N

= 400 x 100/500 = 80%
