Simran: English 78, Hindi 65, Maths 89, Science 78, IT 66
Sanjana: English 87, Hindi 70, Maths 95, Science 84, IT 84
Payal: English 93, Hindi 73, Maths 65, Science 77, IT 85
Bhumika: English 74, Hindi 84, Maths 88, Science 87, IT 79
Neha: English 82, Hindi 87, Maths 84, Science 85, IT 89
Jyoti: English 69, Hindi 90, Maths 93, Science 88, IT 92
Formula used:
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{\text{Sum of Marks in All Subjects}}{\text{Total Marks}} \times\) 100
Calculations:
For Simran:
Sum of Marks = 78 + 65 + 89 + 78 + 66 = 376
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{376}{500} \times\) 100 = 75.2 %
For Sanjana:
Sum of Marks = 87 + 70 + 95 + 84 + 84 = 420
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{420}{500} \times\) 100 = 84 %
For Payal:
Sum of Marks = 93 + 73 + 65 + 77 + 85 = 393
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{393}{500} \times\) 100 = 78.6 %
For Bhumika:
Sum of Marks = 74 + 84 + 88 + 87 + 79 = 412
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{412}{500} \times\) 100 = 82.4 %
For Neha:
Sum of Marks = 82 + 87 + 84 + 85 + 89 = 427
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{427}{500} \times\) 100 = 85.4 %
For Jyoti:
Sum of Marks = 69 + 90 + 93 + 88 + 92 = 432
Overall Percentage = \(\dfrac{432}{500} \times\) 100 = 86.4 %
∴ The correct answer is option 2 (Jyoti).
