how to calculate percentage of marks of 5 subjects

Answer:
To calculate the percentage of marks for 5 subjects, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Add up the total marks obtained in all 5 subjects.

  2. Calculate the sum of the maximum marks for each subject.

  3. Divide the sum of marks obtained by the sum of maximum marks and multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

Here’s the formula:

Percentage = (sum of marks obtained / sum of maximum marks) x 100

Example:

Suppose you scored the following marks in 5 subjects:

Subject 1: 80 marks out of 100 Subject 2: 75 marks out of 100 Subject 3: 90 marks out of 100 Subject 4: 65 marks out of 100 Subject 5: 70 marks out of 100

To calculate the percentage, follow these steps:

  1. Sum up the marks obtained in all 5 subjects: 80 + 75 + 90 + 65 + 70 = 380
  2. Sum up the maximum marks for each subject: 100 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 100 = 500
  3. Calculate the percentage: (380 / 500) x 100 = 76%.

So, your percentage of marks in these 5 subjects is 76%.
