Option 3: 60.5
Option 4: 58.2
Correct Answer: 60.5
Solution :
According to the question,
Marks of P in geography = 88% of 75 = 0.88 × 75 = 66 marks
Marks of Q in geography = 92% of 75 = 0.92 × 75 = 69 marks
Marks of R in geography = 64% of 75 = 0.64 × 75 = 48 marks
Marks of S in geography = 80% of 75 = 0.80 × 75 = 60 marks
Marks of T in geography = 88% of 75 = 0.88 × 75 = 66 marks
Marks of U in geography = 72% of 75 = 0.72 × 75 = 54 marks
Total marks obtained by all students in Geography = 66 + 69 + 48 + 60 + 66 + 54 = 363
Average marks obtained by students in Geography = $\frac{363}{6}$ = 60.5
Hence, the correct answer is 60.5.
