- In a class of 90 students, 60% are girls, which is 54 girls. The remaining 36 are boys.

- Average marks for boys: 63

- Average marks for girls: 70

- To find the average marks for the whole class, calculate the weighted average.

1. Multiply average marks by the number of students for each group:

- Boys: \( 63 \times 36 = 2268 \)

- Girls: \( 70 \times 54 = 3780 \)

2. Sum these results for total marks:

- Total marks = \( 2268 + 3780 = 6048 \)

3. Divide by total number of students to get the average:

- Average = \( \frac{6048}{90} = 67.2 \)

- Option 3: 67.2
