A student scored 32% marks in science subjects out of 300. How much should he score in language papers out of 200 if he is to get overall 46% marks ?
A. 72%
B. 67%
C. 66%
D. 60%
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Total marks= (300 + 200) × $$\frac{46}{100}$$
= 230
Marks obtained by the students in science
= 300 × $$\frac{32}{100}$$
= 96
Required marks in language paper
= (230 - 96)
= 134
Required percentage
= $$\frac{134}{200}$$ × 100
= 67%
Hence, required percentage = 67%
