C.
80%
Answer
D.
Cannot be determined
E.
None of these

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
Number of questions answered correctly = 40% of 125 = 50
For 60% grade, number of questions to be answered correctly = 60% of 250 = 150
Remaining number of questions to be answered correctly
= 150 - 50
= 100
∴ Required percentage
