Solution
(i) Total number of students obtaining less than 20 marks = 27 + 12 = 39.
The cost off one – work book = Rs 5.
∴ The cost of 30 work books 39 × 5
= Rs 195.
(ii) The number of students belonging to the highest mark group = 17
The cost of a prize = 10.
∴ The cost of 17 prizes =10×17
=Rs 170
(iii) The number of students belonging to the lowest mark group =27
∴ The number of problems solved by 1 student = 5
The total number of problems solved by 27 students 5 × 27
=135.
(iv) (a) Total number of students = 100
The number of students in range 40-49=17.
%of students obtaining marks ranging
40 - 49 = `17/100`×100
=17%
So, the given statement is true.
(b) The number of students in range 10-29 =12 =120 = 32.
Percentage of students obtaining marks ranging
10 - 29 = `32/100× 100 = 32%`
So, the given statement is false (False).
(v) No. of students getting more than 20 marks = 39
(vi) Total no. of students getting more than 29 marks = 41
(vii) The number of students getting marks between 9 and 40 =12+20+24 = 56.
(viii) The number of students belonging to the highest mark group = 17.
(ix) The number of students obtaining more than 19 marks =100-27-12 = 61
