Lalit scored 72 marks in 100-mark test. Shubham scored 8 marks more than Lalit but 6 marks less than Sunil. Ravi scored 6 marks less than Daniel, and 7 marks more than Sunil. Who scored the second lowest marks in the given test? Correct Answer Shubham
1) Lalit scored 72 marks in 100-mark test.
Shubham scored 8 marks more than Lalit but 6 marks less than Sunil.
Thus, Shubham’s marks = 72 + 8 = 80
Sunil’s marks = 80 + 6 = 86
Therefore, Lalit < Shubham < Sunil.
2) Ravi scored 6 marks less than Daniel, and 7 marks more than Sunil.
Ravi’s marks = Sunil’s marks + 7
Daniel’s marks = Ravi’s marks + 6
Thus, Sunil < Ravi < Daniel.
Now, we have the following order:
Lalit < Shubham < Sunil < Ravi < Daniel
Second lowest = second in ascending order.
Hence, Shubham scored the second lowest marks in the given test.
