Vaidehi got 92% marks in an examination and Kavyanjali got 78% marks in the same examination. If the difference between the marks obtained by Vaidehi and Kavyanjali is 105, find the marks obtained by Vaidehi in the examination.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 690.

Let the total marks be x.

According to the question;

⇒ 92% of X -  78% of X = 105

⇒ (92 -  78)/100 of X = 105

⇒ (92 -  78)/100 of X = 105

⇒ 14 × X = 10500 ⇒ X = 750
