- Given Data:
- Average marks for boys = 90
- Average marks of the whole class = 92
- Boys to girls ratio = 3:2
- Required: Determine the average marks scored by the girls.
- Calculation Explanation:
- Assume boys = 3x and girls = 2x.
- Total students = 5x.
- Total marks for boys = 90 × 3x.
- Total marks for class = 92 × 5x.
- Equate and solve:
- Total marks for girls = Total class marks - Total boys' marks.
- 92 × 5x = 90 × 3x + Average marks of girls × 2x.
- Solve to find the average marks of the girls.
