Maximum marks in each subject = 100
Subjects = 5
Marks scored in the 5 subjects by the student = 83, 51, 68, 62, 71
Marks to be deducted from each subject due to poor attendance = 7
Calculation:
Net marks in each subject:
⇒ Subject 1: 83 - 7 = 76
⇒ Subject 2: 51 - 7 = 44
⇒ Subject 3: 68 - 7 = 61
⇒ Subject 4: 62 - 7 = 55
⇒ Subject 5: 71 - 7 = 64
Sum of net marks:
⇒ 76 + 44 + 61 + 55 + 64 = 300
Net average marks:
⇒ Net average = 300 / 5 = 60
∴ The correct answer is option (3).
