    A) 40%                             

    B) 45%

    C) 42%                             

    D) 48%

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let minimum pass marks = x Then,        \[x+\frac{3x}{100}=515\] \[\frac{103x}{100}=515\] \[x=500\] Now, required % marks above the pass marks \[=\frac{710-500}{500}\times 100\] \[=\frac{210}{500}\times 100\] \[=\frac{210}{5}=42%\]
