Total no of students failed = 65% (100-35% who passed)

Total no of students passed is 35%, So
7*35=245.

Answer / amruta

100 percent students appeared for exam
from which 35 % passed
which means (100-35) = 65% failed

No. of students failed = 455

65% = 455
then 35% = ?

so by cross multiplication

? = (455/65)* 35

? = 245
so we got 35% is 245
Therefore total no. of students appeared for the exam = 245+455 = 700

Answer / naveen singh

Let no. of student attempted exam = x
Total student failed = 455
% of student passed = 65% (100%-35%)
Therefore:

65% of x = 455
65/100 of x = 455
x = 455*100/65
x = 700

so, 700 is the total number of student attempted the exam.
