Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Identify the passing marks required.

    Marks obtained = 332 marks
    Marks short = 4 marks
    Passing marks required = marks obtained + marks short
    332+4=336332 + 4 = 336 marks

  2. Passing percentage formula.

    Passing percentage = 40% = 40100=0.4\frac{40}{100} = 0.4
    Passing marks = 0.4×0.4 \times maximum marks (M marks)

  3. Set up the equation.

    0.4M=3360.4 M = 336 marks

  4. Solve for maximum marks M.

    M=3360.4M = \frac{336}{0.4} marks
    M=336×104M = 336 \times \frac{10}{4} marks

    336÷4=84336 \div 4 = 84

    84×10=84084 \times 10 = 840 marks

    Maximum marks = 840 marks
