    ratio of 18: 23 respectively. If he got 15 marks less in Hindi than in English, then what is his average marks in both subjects?
    A 62.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 61.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 63.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 64.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 65.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let marks scored in Hindi = 18x and English = 23x
    23x - 18x = 15
    => 5x = 15
    => x = 3
    So, his average marks = (18x + 23x)/2 = 41x/2 = 3 * 41/2= 61.5
