* Marks obtained in October 2001 =
Total marks obtained in August 2001 and October 2001 combined:
Since the maximum marks for each periodical exam is 500, the total maximum marks for two exams combined is:
Now, calculate the required percentage:
* Marks obtained in August 2001 =
* Marks obtained in October 2001 =
Total marks obtained in August 2001 and October 2001 combined:
Since the maximum marks for each periodical exam is 500, the total maximum marks for two exams combined is:
