    In an exam of 100 marks, the average marks of a class of 40 students are 76. If the top 3 scorers of the class leave, the average score falls “down by 1. If the other two toppers except “the highest topper scored not more than 85. “then what is the minimum score the topper can score?

    86

    Incorrect Answer

    98

    Incorrect Answer

    95

    Correct Answer

    92

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Total score of 40 students = (40 × 76) = 3040

    Total score of top 3 scorers = 3040 – (37 × 75) = 265

    To minimize the score of the top scorer, we assume the other two top scorers score the maximum they can = 85 marks each.

    So, the top scorer scored = 265 – 170 = 95 marks.
