Solution

The correct option is C
Deepthi

Average marks= $\frac{79 + 81 + 68 + 85 + 62 + 77 + 73 + 94 + 81 + 80}{10}$ = $\frac{780}{10}$ =78.

Students who have scored less than 78 marks, will not be promoted to section A.

So, from the given options, only Deepthi has scored less than 78 and will not be promoted to section A.
