Answer:
The percentage (score) obtained by Ria is 78%
Step-by-step explanation:
The given percentage Raj obtained in the exam = 51%
The marks Raj obtained = 459 marks
The marks Ria obtained in the same exam = 702
The percentage obtained by Ria is given as follows
Let x represent the total score of the exam, we have;
51% of x = 459
Therefore;
51/100 × x = 459
x = 459 × 100/51 = 900
The total score in the exam = 900
The percentage score obtained by Ria is therefore given as follows;
Ria's percentage score = (Ria's raw score/(The total score of the exam)) × 100 = (702/900) × 100 = 78%
Therefore, the percentage (score) obtained by Ria = 78%.
