As per your information, the minimum passing mark for 80 is 32 marks. So, to find out the passing percentage in the examination, we have to divide 32 by 80 and multiply by 100. i.e., (32/80) x 100 which is equal to 40%.
That means the percentage required to pass the examination is 40%. Hence, to find out the minimum passing marks out of 50, we need to know the 40% of 50.
The 40% of 50 is (40/100) x 50 = 20
Therefore, the minimum passing mark required out of 50 is 20.
Hence, to pass the examination, you have to score 20 or above on the exam.
Dear student,
This can be answered using some mathematics.
Below I am doing it. Please have a look at it.
As you said the minimum passing marks for 80 marks exam is 32, so let us first calculate what is the percentage of marks they are asking.
To do so, we can simply do:- (32/80) * 100 = 40%
Now the same percentage will be required when when we will have 50 marks examination.
So, we have to calculate 40% of 50 which will be equal to:- (40/100)* 50 = 20
So the minimum passing marks is 20 when you have exam of 50 marks.
I hope this analysis helps you.
All the very best!!
