A) 200
B) 400
C) 450
D) 600
E) 900

[liferocks]

so 48-45=3% of the marks is 32-5 or 27
hence 45%= 27*45/3=9*45=405

so pass marks is 405-5=400

Ans option B

[selango]

Let x be mark obtained and y be pass mark

45/100*x=y+5

48/100*x=Y+32

->3/100*x=27

x=900

y+5=45/100*900

y+5=405->y=400

option B
