Verified by Toppr

Given : % of students who failed in one subject only =(xz)%
And % of student who failed in other subject =(yz)%
% of student who failed in two subjects =z%
Then, passed students =[100[(xz)+(yz)+z]]
=100(x+yz)
Given a student get 60% marks to pass and gets 120 marks
and fail by 60 marks
Then maximum marks =100(120+60)60=100×18060=300
