      Solution

      As L scored 6 marks more than P. Neither R nor S scored more than P. At least three students scored more than L. Mark scored by F is the average of L and P. Difference between the mark scored by M and O is 10 marks. Q scored more than N, who doesn’t score more than M. Q doesn’t score the second highest mark. R doesn’t score the lowest mark, so Q > M > N > L > O > P > R > S Mark scored by L = (166 – 28) = 138 Mark scored by O = (138 + 132)/ 2) = 135 Mark scored by M = (135 + 10) = 145
