As per my solution;
First, l am calculating to the total % in physics 120% total marks 7.
(90+80+70+80+85+65+50)/7 * 120 = 520/7 * 120 = 74.3 * 120 = 89.16.

In question, it is not given anywhere that the marks are in %. Maximum marks (Subject) is only mentioned. So the solution must be 520/7 = 74.28.

Thanks guys. It clear my doubt. I didn't understand at first and after reading your post I came to know the reason. I really appreciate it.

In Computer Science Max Mark is 40, But Student Marks is given up to 90. How can we get 90 marks even Max mark is 40 only.

We can 1/7 * (90+80+70+80+85+65+50).
= 1/7 * 520.
= 74.2857 * 1.2 (full mark 120%) = 89.14.
= 1/7 * 520.
= 74.2857 * 1.2 (full mark 120%) = 89.14.

How can it be possible, max marks of history & com-science are less than the marks obtained by the students?

Easy way:-
((Total Marks)/(No. of Students))*(outoff marks).
i.e. (520/7)*120 = 89.14.
[520*120]/7 =86.14.
((Total Marks)/(No. of Students))*(outoff marks).
i.e. (520/7)*120 = 89.14.
[520*120]/7 =86.14.

Simple= 520/100*120=624.
You can try to first divisible get 0 or canceled and got multiply 12*52=624.

@Neharika:
All above total markes same, so per add 120 is common
a%150 + b%150 + c%150=(a +b +c)%150
