This is hows it is done.
ITS WRITTEN THE TOTAL MARKS OF PAPER ARE 200.
so 200 is divided by 160 answer is 1.25!
1.25 is multiplied with ur number of marks attained e.g u got 120 so 120*1.25=150
THEN COMPARE WITH THE THRESHOLD AND CHECK UR GRADE ! :)

Dude paper 6 is out of 40 but its just 20% of the mark and paper 3 is out of 80 but is 50 % out of the mark and paper 1 is out of 40 buts its 30 percent of the mark so you got 100 multiply it by 2
