What are the average marks obtained by all the six students in Hindi?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 106.
Average marks = Sum of marks obtained/Number of students
According to the given table,
Marks obtained by Aanya in Hindi = 90% of 120 = 108
Marks obtained by Aarav in Hindi = 90% of 120 = 108
Marks obtained by Lavi in Hindi = 80% of 120 = 96
Marks obtained by Monika in Hindi = 100% of 120 = 120
Marks obtained by Devyansh in Hindi = 100% of 120 = 120
Marks obtained by Tanmay in Hindi = 70% of 120 = 84
Average marks = (108 + 108 + 96 + 120 + 120 + 84)/6
⇒ 636/6 = 106
