Correct Answer - Option 1 : 245.5
Given :
Arjun scored 523 marks in an exam, and Anjali got 60% in the same exam, which is 73 marks less than Arjun's marks.
Passing per cent is 37%.
Solution:
Arjun's score in the exam = 523 marks
Anjali's score in the exam = 523 - 73 (given)
⇒ 450
According to the question
Anjalis marks = 60% of the total marks
60% of total marks = 450
Total marks = 750
Pasing marks = 37% of 750 = 277.5
Difference of Arjun's marks and passing marks = 523 - 277.5 = 245.5
∴ Option 1 will be the correct answer.
