Question

Each of the six friends, A, B, C, D, E and F scored different marks in an examination. C scored more than only A and E. D scored less than only B. E did not score the least. The one who scored the third highest mark scored 81 marks. E scored 62 marks. The person who scored the maximum scored 13 marks more than F's marks.
Which of the following can be D's score?

• A. 94
• B. 60
• C. 89
• D. 78
• E. 81

Answer 1

The correct option is C 89

Six friends marks in descending order (>) are as follows: B > D > F > C > E > A

$\because$ B scored the highest marks.
$\therefore$ B's marks = F's marks + 13
= 81 + 13
= 94
D scored second highest marks.
$\therefore$ D scored marks between 81 and 94.
Hence, D's possible marks = 89
