Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 4 : 84 

Given:

Ishani’s scores in Economics = 80 out of 150

Ishani’s scores in Statistics = 95 out of 120

Total percentage in 3 subjects = 70%

Calculation:

Total maximum marks = 100 + 120 + 150

⇒ 370

Total marks in History and English = 95 + 80 

⇒ 175

Total marks required by her to get 70% = 370 × 70%

⇒ 370 × (70/100)

⇒ 37 × 7

⇒ 259

∴ she needs = 259 – 175

⇒ 84 marks

∴ The minimum marks she should score in Accountancy out of 100 to score 70% marks in 3 subjects is 84 marks.
