    B 10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let number of students be 'N' and sum of marks of all the students be 'S'. ATQ: We have, (SтИТ50+80)/N = (S/N) + 3 Or, (S/N) - (S+30)/N = -3 Or, (30/N) = 3 So, 'N' = (30 / 3) = 10 Therefore, total number of students are 10.
