Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
First, calculate the total maximum marks across all six subjects: 160 + 160 + 120 + 120 + 200 + 240 = 1000.
Next, find the total marks obtained by Student A: 80 + 84 + 66 + 56 + 154 + 150 = 590.
The percentage for Student A is (590 / 1000) * 100 = 59%.
Then, find the total marks obtained by Student B: 120 + 100 + 84 + 76 + 136 + 132 = 648.
The percentage for Student B is (648 / 1000) * 100 = 64.8%.
Thus, the respective percentages are 59% and 64.8%.
