Question
The information regarding the marks obtained by five students - Amit, Bala, Chhavi, Dhruv and Eva - in six subjects - Math, English, Science, Hindi, History and Geography - are given below.

Bala obtained 5 marks less in Hindi than in English.Q 110. What is the difference in the total marks obtained by Chhavi and Bala in the two subjects Math and Science?a) 49b) 59c) 35d) 40
Solution
To find the difference in the total marks obtained by Chhavi and Bala in Math and Science, we first need to find out how much each of them scored in these subjects.
From the information given, we know that Chhavi scored 145 in Math and her marks in Science were 1 less than her marks in Math. So, Chhavi scored 145 in Math and 144 in Science. Therefore, Chhavi's total marks in Math and Science are 145 + 144 = 289.
The total marks obtained by Bala in all six subjects is 587. However, we only know Bala's marks in English (90), History (90), and Geography (82). So, the total marks obtained by Bala in these three subjects is 90 + 90 + 82 = 262.
To find out how much Bala scored in Math and Science, we subtract the total marks obtained by Bala in English, History, and Geography from the total marks obtained by Bala in all six subjects. So, Bala's total marks in Math, Science, and Hindi are 587 - 262 = 325.
We also know that Bala scored 5 marks less in Hindi than in English. So, Bala scored 90 - 5 = 85 in Hindi.
Subtracting Bala's Hindi marks from his total marks in Math, Science, and Hindi gives us his total marks in Math and Science. So, Bala's total marks in Math and Science are 325 - 85 = 240.
Finally, to find the difference in the total marks obtained by Chhavi and Bala in Math and Science, we subtract Bala's total marks in these subjects from Chhavi's total marks in these subjects. So, the difference is 289 - 240 = 49.
Therefore, the answer is a) 49.
