Correct Answer: 33
Solution :
According to the question:
At least 60% marks in Mathematics are required for pursuing higher studies in Mathematics,
Total Marks in Mathematics = 50
⇒ 60% of 50 = $\frac{60\times{50}}{100}$ = 30 marks
Number of students having 30 marks or above = 33
$\therefore$ The number of students eligible to pursue higher studies in Mathematics = 33.
Hence, the correct answer is 33.
