Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

माना कि परीक्षा में कुल x छात्र सम्मिलित हुए थे।
सबसे अच्छे छात्रों द्वारा प्राप्त कुल अंक = `(20x)/(100)` `xx` 80 = 16x
सबसे खराब छात्रों द्वारा प्राप्त कुल अंक =`( 25x)/100` `xx` 31 = 7.75x
माना कि शेष 55% छात्रों के प्राप्तांक का औसत y था।
`therefore` 16x + 7.75x + 55y `xx` x
`rArr` `55/100y`= `52x - 23.75x`
`rArr y = (28.25 xx 100)/55`
`therefore` y = 51.36 = 51.4
