. The maximum marks of each subject are 150. A student scores 80% in Maths. In English, he scores 70% of his
score in Maths and in
Hindi, he scores 75% of his score in English. Find his score in each subject.

Maths = 120

English = 84

Hindi = 63

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for Maths since the others require that answer.

Using decimals, 80% of 150 can be written as 0.8 x 150 = x (where x is 80% of 150).

0.8 x 150 = x

120 = x

Since you know the score for maths, you can find the score for english, which is 70% of 120.

0.7 x 120 = y

84 = y

Since you now have the score for English too, that can be used to find the score for Hindi, which is 75% of the English score (84)

0.75 x 84 = z

63 = z
