The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first find out how much B scored based on C's score, and then calculate A's score based on B's score. ### Step 1: Calculate B's score Given that C scored 300 marks, and B scored 5% more than C. To find B's score: 1. Calculate 5% of C's score. \[ 5\% \text{ of } 300 = \frac{5}{100} \times 300 = 15 \] 2. Add this amount to C's score to find B's score. \[ B's \text{ score} = C's \text{ score} + 5\% \text{ of } C's \text{ score} = 300 + 15 = 315 \] ### Step 2: Calculate A's score Now that we have B's score, we can find A's score. A scored 10% more than B. To find A's score: 1. Calculate 10% of B's score. \[ 10\% \text{ of } 315 = \frac{10}{100} \times 315 = 31.5 \] 2. Add this amount to B's score to find A's score. \[ A's \text{ score} = B's \text{ score} + 10\% \text{ of } B's \text{ score} = 315 + 31.5 = 346.5 \] ### Final Answer Thus, A's marks are **346.5**. ---
