    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Ishaan’s score = Mohit's score - 40 = 120 - 40 = 80 Kirti’s score = Ishaan's score + 50 = 80 + 50 = 130 Lata’s score = Kirti's score - 34 = 130 - 34 = 96 Ojas’s score in the first test = Lata's score - 19 = 96 - 19 = 77 Total maximum marks of tests = 160 + 190 = 350 Ojas has to score 80% of 350 = 350 × (80/100) = 280 marks Remaining required marks = 280 - 77 = 203 Required % = (203/190) × 100 = 106.8421% or 106%
