      Question

      The average marks of a class of 40 students were 75.

      When the marks of 5 students were removed, the average marks of the remaining students became 72. What were the average marks of the 5 students whose marks were removed?
      A 55 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 77 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 96 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 87 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total marks of 40 students = 40 X 75 = 3000 Total marks after 5 students were removed = 35 X 72 = 2520 So, total marks of the 5 removed students = 3000 - 2520 = 480 So, required average = 480 Γ· 5 = 96 marks
