From Statement I,
Marks scored by Sunil = 288 and marks scored by Raman = 288 - 128 = 160
∴ Maximum marks = 160 x100/25 = 640
From Statement II,
Minimum passing Marks = 160 + 64 = 224
∴ Minimum passing percentage
= 224 x 100 /640 = 35%
Hence, the data in both the statements necessary to answer the question.
