The marks scored by Amit in Physics in both tests together is approximately __________ % more than the marks scored by him in Hindi in both tests together.

The correct answer is

32

Calculation:

Total Marks in Physics:

Test-1: (22 / 100) * 750 = 165

Test-2: (18.125 / 100) * 800 = 145

Total Physics Marks = 165 + 145 = 310

Total Marks in Hindi:

Test-1: (14 / 100) * 750 = 105

Test-2: (16.250 / 100) * 800 = 130

Total Hindi Marks = 105 + 130 = 235

Percentage Excess:

Difference in Marks = 310 - 235 = 75

Percentage Excess = (75 / 235) * 100 ≈ 31.915%

When we find the approximate value of 31.915%, it is closest to 32%.
