Riya fails in the exam by 2 marks.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the total marks required to pass.
Total marks in Section A = 80 marks
Total marks in Section B = 120 marks
Total marks in the test = 120 + 80 = 200 marks
Percentage required to pass = 65%
⇒ Required marks to pass = 65% of 200 = 65/100 × 200 = 130 marks
- Step 2: Find marks scored in Section A and Section B.
Marks scored in Section A = 55% = 55% of 80 = 55/100 × 80 = 44 marks
Marks scored in Section B = 70% = 70% of 120 = 70/100 × 120 = 84 marks
- Step 3: Find total marks scored.
Total marks scored = 44 + 84 = 128 marks
128 < 130 ⇒ Riya fails in the test.
