Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

Let the maximum marks be x. According to the question, 20% of $ x+5=30 $ % of $ x-20 $

$ \Rightarrow [(30-20)] $ % of x = 25

$ \Rightarrow $ $ x=\frac{25\times 100}{10}=250 $

$ \therefore $ Pass marks = 20% of $ 250+5=55 $

$ \therefore $ Pass marks percentage $ =\frac{55}{250}\times 100=22 $ %
