Correct Answer: 40 marksQ
Explanation:
Total marks of 100 students = 100 x 85 = 8500
The rest of students after 10% excluded = 90
So, the total marks of 90 students = 90 x 90 = 8100
Now, the total marks of 90 studcnts = 100 — 90 = 10
The total marks of excluded students = 8500 – 8100 = 400
So, the average mark of 10% excluded students = 400 + 10 = 40 marks.
