Answer

To find the overall percentage of marks that Paresh got, we can follow these steps:

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Calculate the Total Marks Obtained by Paresh:**
- Marks in Hindi = 102
- Marks in Science = 118
- Marks in Sanskrit = 104
- Marks in Maths = 114
- Marks in English = 96

Total Marks = 102 + 118 + 104 + 114 + 96

\[ \text{Total Marks} = 102 + 118 + 104 + 114 + 96 = 534 \]

2. **Calculate the Total Maximum Marks:**
- Maximum marks for each subject = 120
- Number of subjects = 5

Total Maximum Marks = 120 * 5

\[ \text{Total Maximum Marks} = 120 \times 5 = 600 \]

3. **Calculate the Overall Percentage:**
- Percentage = (Total Marks Obtained / Total Maximum Marks) * 100

\[ \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{534}{600}\right) \times 100 \]

\[ \text{Percentage} = 89\% \]

### Final Answer:
Paresh's overall percentage of marks is **89%**.
