Question

If the overall percentage increase in marks in Mock CEE 2 is 52%, then how much does he score in RC in Mock CEE 2?

• A. 0%
• B. 36%
• C. 60%
• D. 42%
• E. 50%

Answer 1

The correct option is B 36%

Option b

Since the percentage growth is given as 52%> marks = 12.5*1.52*4=76 marks in Mock CEE2

The case will not be the previous case where the maximum growth is expected. This time it will be lesser.

If the percentage growth in his score in Reasoning is thrice that expected and he scores 10 marks more in RC, then his total score can be 78. We are looking for 76 marks

This will happen if the percentage growth in his score in RC is thrice that expected and he scores 10 marks more than expected in Reasoning. He then scores 25+16+18+17=76 marks. Thus, his percentage marks in RC= 12*3= 36%
