Let the total marks be x.

The student requires 40% of x to pass which is 0.4x.

Also, the student got 274 marks and failed by 16 marks. This means the passing marks should have been 274 + 16 = 290.

So, we have the equation:

0.4x = 290

Solving for x:

x = 290 / 0.4

x = 725

Therefore, the total marks in the examination is 725.
