What is the marks scored by them in English and Science if Raju scored 40 marks in Social?1. 422. 36.53. 38.54. 405. 32.5

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 38.5

Total marks scored by Raju = 38 × 4 = 152

Total marks scored by Ghanshyam  = 41 × 4 = 164

Ratio of marks obtained by Raju and Ghanshyam in Maths = 5 ∶ 6

⇒ Let the marks obtained by Raju and Ghanshyam in Maths be 5x and 6x

Marks scored by Raju in Social = 40

Marks scored by Ghanshyam in Social = 45

Let the marks scored by them in English and Science = y

∴ The difference in marks scored by them 

⇒ (6x + y + y + 45) – (5x + y + y + 40) = 164 – 152

⇒ x = 7

∴ Marks scored by Raju in Maths = 7 × 5 = 35

∴ Marks obtained by Raju in English and Science 

⇒ y + y = 152 – 40 – 35 = 77

⇒ y = 77/2 = 38.5

∴ The marks scored by Ghanshyam and Raju in English and Science is 38.5
