• E. 81

Answer 1

The correct option is C 89

In the above question, there are 6 persons A, B, C, D, E and F having different marks in examination.
C scored more than only A and E
C > A and E
D scored less than only B.
B > D
E did not score the least and its marks are 62.
The person who scored third highest has 81 marks.
According to the above information, the sequence is
B > D > F > C > E > A
We know that, F scored 81 marks and B scored the highest marks
$\therefore$ B - F = 13
$\Rightarrow B=13+81\Rightarrow B=94$
D scored more than 81 but less than 94. Option (c) matches with the condition. Hence, D scored 89 marks.
