  1. The marks of 3 students A, B and C are in the ratio 10 : 12 : 15. If the maximum marks of the paper are 100, then the marks of B cannot be in the range of ?
    1. 20 - 30
    2. 40 - 50
    3. 70 - 80
    4. 80 - 90
Correct Option: D

Let the marks of A, B and C are 10k, 12k and 15k, respectively.
Let k = 6
∴ Maximum marks of C can be = 15 x 6 = 90
So, maximum marks of B can be = 12 x 6 = 72

As the marks are fixed and they cannot exceed the maximum marks.
So, the marks of B cannot be in the range of (80 - 90) ie B cannot score above 80.
