(Correct to two decimal places) Correct Answer 89.14

Total number obtained by A in Physics = 120 × 90/100 = 108

Total number obtained by B in Physics = 120 × 80/100 = 96

Total number obtained by C in Physics = 120 × 70/100 = 84

Total number obtained by D in Physics = 120 × 80/100 = 96

Total number obtained by E in Physics = 120 × 85/100 = 102

Total number obtained by F in Physics = 120 × 65/100 = 78

Total number obtained by G in Physics = 120 × 50/100 = 60

Total number obtained by all seven students in Physics = 108 + 96 + 84 + 96 + 102 + 78 + 60 = 624

Required average = 624/7 = 89.14
