A candidate obtains 32% of the total marks and fails by 48 marks. Another candidate obtains 44% of the total marks and scores 24 marks more than the passing marks. What is the passing percentage? / एक अभ्यर्थी कुल अंकों का 32% प्राप्त करके 48 अंकों से अनुत्तीर्ण होता है। दूसरा अभ्यर्थी 44% अंक प्राप्त करके उत्तीर्णांक से 24 अंक अधिक प्राप्त करता है। उत्तीर्ण प्रतिशत कितना है?

Difference in percentage = 44% − 32% = 12%. Difference in marks = 48 + 24 = 72. Thus 12% = 72, so total marks = 600. Passing marks = 32% of 600 +…

A candidate scores 36% marks and fails by 24 marks. Another candidate scores 44% marks and gets 16 marks more than the passing marks.

Difference between the two candidates = 44% − 36% = 8%. Difference in their marks = 24 + 16 = 40. Thus 8% = 40, so total marks = 500. Passing mar…
