(B) Let the total marks be $x$.Passing marks required $= 35 \% 	ext{ of } x$.Rishu obtained $216$ marks and failed by $5 \%$,which means his marks are $5 \%$ less than the passing marks.So,Rishu's percentage $= 35 \% - 5 \% = 30 \%$.According to the problem,$30 \% 	ext{ of } x = 216$.$\frac{30}{100} 	imes x = 216$.$x = \frac{216 	imes 100}{30}$.$x = 7.2 	imes 100 = 720$.Therefore,the total marks were $720$.

In an examination,it is required to get $35 \%$ of the aggregate marks to pass. Rishu got $216$ marks and was declared failed by $5 \%$ marks. What was the total marks?
