The average marks of a student in 6 subjects are 75. If the student scores 80 in one subject, what will be the total score in the remaining subjects.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 370.
Total marks for 6 subjects = 75 × 6 = 450
The student scored 80 in one subject, so the total marks for the remaining 5 subjects is:
Total marks for remaining 5 subjects = 450 - 80 = 370
Thus, the total score in the remaining 5 subjects is 370.
