Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Cavin

Concept Used:

$Average\ score = {Sum\ of\ scores \over Number\ of\ subjects}$ ...(i)

Explanation:

According to the given question,

Sum of scores of Amit = (98 + 95 + 96 + 89 + 96) = 474

Average of score of Amit = 474/5 = 94.8

Sum of scores of Bablu = (89 + 95 + 97 + 86 + 95) = 462

Average of score of Bablu = 462/5 = 92.4

Sum of scores of Cavin = (96 + 99 + 94 + 87 + 94) = 470

Average of score of Cavin = 470/5 = 94

Hence, Cavin has secured an average score of exactly 94%.
