A) 60 B) 52
C) 45 D) 35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 35

Explanation:

Let the total applicants be 100

 

Then, 20% got 85 marks

i.e 20 x 85 = 1700

 

and 25% got 95 marks

 i.e 25 x 95 = 2375

 

Now, the remaining applicants are 55 and let the average marks scored by them be x.

 

Therefore, 2375 + 1700 + 55x  =  60×100 

6000 - 4075 = 55x

55x=1925

x=35.
