      Solution

      ATQ,

      Total marks scored by Meena in English, History, and Mathematics = 82 ร— 3 = 246

      So, marks scored by Meena in English and History = 246 โ€“ 90 = 156

      Let the marks obtained by Meena in History be โ€˜xโ€™.

      So, marks obtained by Meena in English = 1.4x

      So, x + 1.4x = 156

      2.4x = 156

      x = 156 / 2.4

      x = 65

      So, marks obtained by Meena in History = 65 marks.
