If Rajendra obtains 10% marks more then Surendra then how many % less marks are obtained by Surendra than Rajendra?

Question

The % obtained by a student is 74. If we take % on the basis of 4 subjects (leaving the marks of fifth subject) then % is 76.
How many marks he got in the fifth subject?

Answer 1

Let Surendra obtain 100 marks.
Then Rajendra marks =100+10%of100=110
so surendra is 10 marks less than Rajendra's 110 marks.
% less =10/110*100=9.09%
Ans is 9.09%
