Solution

The correct option is C
180
The student scored 45 and still lost by 27 marks → pass mark = 72
Also, the pass mark is 40% of total marks
40% of total marks = 72
Total marks = 72 × 10040 = 180

छात्र ने 45 अंक प्राप्त किये परन्तु 27 अंकों से अनुत्तीर्ण हो गया → उत्तीर्णांक = 72
चूंकि, उत्तीर्णांक कुल अंकों का 40% है
कुल अंकों का 40% = 72
कुल अंक = 72 × 10040 = 180
