To calculate the percentage of marks obtained by the student, you can use the formula for percentage: 
 Percentage = ( Total Marks Obtained Marks ​ ) × 100 
 In this case, the student obtained 30 marks out of a possible 40 marks. Let's substitute these values into the formula: 
 Percentage = ( 40 30 ​ ) × 100 
 First, divide 30 by 40: 
 40 30 ​ = 0.75 
 Now, multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage: 
 0.75 × 100 = 75% 
 So, the student obtained 75% of the total marks on the mathematics paper. This means that if the total marks possible on the paper were 100, the student would have earned 75 marks. Calculating percentages is a valuable skill in mathematics as it allows you to determine proportions and compare data easily.
