    The average marks scored by him (excluding his highest and lowest marks) are 50 and lowest marks scored by him are 45. Find the highest marks scored by him.

    C 110 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 130 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Sum of marks scored by him in five subjects = 5 x 70 = 350 Sum of marks scored by him (excluding his highest and lowest marks) = 3 x 50 = 150 Therefore, sum of highest and lowest marks = 350 – 150 = 200 So, highest marks scored by him = 200 – 45 = 155
