Subject | Marks out of 50 | ||||
40 and above | 30 and above | 20 and above | 10 and above | 0 and above | |
Physics | 9 | 32 | 80 | 92 | 100 |
Chemistry | 4 | 21 | 66 | 81 | 100 |
Average (Aggregate) | 7 | 27 | 73 | 87 | 100 |
4.
The number of students scoring less than 40% marks in aggregate is?

Why can't we directly take 27 from the table 30 and above. It is less than 40 % and we can easily get 27!
Is there any logic here? Help me.

10 and above should be included but 20 30 40 above are not included since it is higher than 40% and above.
Physic 92-80 = 12.
Chemistry 81-66 = 15.
=27.

It's simple.
Out of 100 students, 73 students have scored 20/50 and to find students scored less than 20, simply subtract total students (100) - students scored above 20 (73) = 27.
We can't simply subtract 73 from 87 because there are students scored less than 10 also so, it 73 should subtract from 100.

Here, it is clearly mentioned that less than 40%. So, why would we consider 40% and above?
Please, anyone, explain me.
