Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 64.25%

Given:

Subject →	A	B	C	D	E
Marks	50	75	75	150	50
P%	60	76	80	56	52

Calculation:

Marks of P in A subject = 50 × 60/100 = 30

Marks of P in B subject = 75 × 76/100 = 57

Marks of P in C subject = 75 × 80/100 = 60

Marks of P in D subject = 150 × 56/100 = 84

Marks of P in E subject = 50 × 52/100 = 26

Total marks of P = 30 + 57 + 60 + 84 + 26 =257

Total marks = 50 + 75 + 75 + 150 + 50 = 400

Required % = (257/400) × 100 = 64.25%.

∴ The required percentage is 64.25%.
