Seven marks are to be deducted from each subject because of poor attendance. What will be the net average marks scored by the student?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 60.
Sum of marks obtained before deduction = 83 + 51 + 68 + 62 + 71 = 335
Sum of marks after deduction = 335 - 35 = 300
Required average = 300/5 = 60
