The correct Answer is:
To find out the marks of Supriyo based on the information given, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between Mahuya's and Supriyo's marks Mahuya got 10% less marks than Supriyo. This means if Supriyo's marks are represented as \( S \), then Mahuya's marks can be expressed as: \[ M = S - 0.1S = 0.9S \] ### Step 2: Substitute the known value We know that Mahuya got 81 marks. Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ 0.9S = 81 \] ### Step 3: Solve for Supriyo's marks To find Supriyo's marks \( S \), we need to isolate \( S \) in the equation: \[ S = \frac{81}{0.9} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the value Now, we perform the calculation: \[ S = \frac{81}{0.9} = 81 \times \frac{10}{9} = 90 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the marks of Supriyo are: \[ S = 90 \] ### Final Answer Supriyo got **90 marks**. ---
