To find the percentage of marks a girl received, you can use the formula:

Percentage Calculation

The formula for calculating percentage is:

Percentage = (Obtained Marks / Total Marks) × 100

Applying the Formula

In this case, the girl scored 65 marks out of a total of 80 marks. Plugging these values into the formula gives:

Percentage = (65 / 80) × 100

Performing the Calculation

  • First, divide 65 by 80, which equals 0.8125.
  • Next, multiply 0.8125 by 100 to convert it into a percentage.
  • This results in 81.25.

Final Result

The girl scored 81.25% of the total marks.
