Let x be the the maximum marks
First, you multiply x by 40%, and you get:
[tex] \frac{40}{100}x = 60[/tex]
[tex]0.4x = 60[/tex]
You move 0.4 to the other part. and since 0.4 was a multiplication, it become a division, so you get:
[tex]x = \frac{60}{0.4} [/tex]
you divide, and you get:
[tex]x = 150[/tex]
So, the full marks are 150 points.
Hope this Helps! :)
