In an examination, A has scored 20 marks more than B. If B has scored 5% less marks than A, how much has B scored?
Explanation & Solution
The correct answer is (B) 380.
Explanation:
Let A's score be x. Then B's score is (x-20). Also, B's score is 95% of A's score. Therefore: x-20 = 0.95x. Solving: x = 400. Thus B's score = 380.
