A student scored 75 out of 120 marks in an exam. What is the student's percentage score?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Total Marks = 120
Marks Obtained = 75
\begin{align*} \text{Percentage} &= \frac{75}{120} \times 100 \\ &= \frac{5}{8} \times 100 \\ &= 0.625 \times 100 \\ &= \mathbf{62.5\%} \end{align*}
