Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

First, sum the marks obtained by student A across all subjects: 76 + 84 + 66 + 56 + 154 + 144 equals 580.

Next, sum the maximum marks for all subjects: 160 + 160 + 120 + 120 + 200 + 240 equals 1000.

Dividing the obtained marks by the maximum marks gives a percentage of exactly 58%.
