Q1.
Consider the following table that presents the results of a competitive MCQ examination, where candidates were tested in their knowledge of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Computer Science. The table contains the data on the number of candidates securing marks within the specified range of marks. For example, [81 - 100] specifies the range of marks as ≥ 81 and ≤ 100.Marks-wise Distribution of Candidates Subject Total Marks [81-100] 71-80] 61-70] [51-60] [41-50] [31-40] [21-30] [11-20] [0-10] Physics 100 0 1 4 85 730 4205 10885 9170 1970 Chemistry 100 2 5 875 3350 6775 7778 5065 1800 1350 Mathematics 100 0 0 0 6 199 3400 15045 6975 1375 Computer science 50 0 0 0 220 2145 10140 11858 2637
