Question

If 120 marks is 60% what is full marks

Answer 1

since 120 is 60 percent we know that 2/3*120+120 will be 100 percent

2/3*120=80
so 80+120=200

So, full marks is 200

Answer 2

percentage is a value by a fraction of 100.
120 marks is equivalent to 60%
this means from the whole amount, 60 % of the whole amount is 120 marks
we need to find the full marks
if 60 % --- 120
then 1 % ---
`(120)/(60)`
full marks are 100 %
therefore 100 % -
`(120)/(60) * 100`
100 % --- 200 marks
full marks are 200 marks
