Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
To find the aggregate marks, calculate the actual marks for each subject by applying the percentage to the maximum marks (M.M) and summing them up.
For Student C:
- English: 80% of 150 = 120
- Economics: 60% of 130 = 78
- Sociology: 70% of 120 = 84
- Philosophy: 70% of 100 = 70
- Psychology: 80% of 60 = 48
- IT: 70% of 40 = 28
Total = 120 + 78 + 84 + 70 + 48 + 28 = 428
For Student F:
- English: 60% of 150 = 90
- Economics: 75% of 130 = 97.5
- Sociology: 60% of 120 = 72
- Philosophy: 80% of 100 = 80
- Psychology: 40% of 60 = 24
- IT: 60% of 40 = 24
Total = 90 + 97.5 + 72 + 80 + 24 + 24 = 387.5
Thus, the aggregate marks obtained by students C and F are 428 and 387.5 respectively.
