Study the chart given carefully and answer the question that
follows:
The following table lists the marks of seven students (givenn in rows) of a class across six subjects (given in columns ). The Numbers in the brackets indicate the maximum marks of the subject concerned.
If the maximum marks scored by the students in the Hindi subject were to be upscaled to 200 uniformly by the Examinations Department without affecting their percentages scored currently by each student, then what will be the difference in the marks scored by Chandesh and Hanish in Hindi?
Solution
Chandesh scored 75 out of 120 marks in Hindi. So, out of 200 marks, his score = $$\ \frac{\ 75}{120}\times\ 200$$ = 125
Hanish scored 35 out of 120 marks in Hindi. So, out of 200 marks, his score = $$\ \frac{35}{120}\times\ 200$$ = 58.33
Difference in their marks = 125-58.33 = 66.67
The nearest option is option E, which is the answer.
