Question

A teacher wants to view only students who scored above 75 marks without deleting other records. Which Excel tool is best?

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (25-Sep-2025) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

Filter

The teacher wants to display only the students scoring above 75 while keeping every other record intact, so the tool must show a subset temporarily without deleting any data.

The Filter tool does exactly this: applying a filter with the criterion "greater than 75" hides the rows that do not qualify and shows only the matching students.

Filtering is non-destructive — the hidden rows are simply not displayed, and removing the filter instantly brings back all records, so nothing is lost.

Remove Duplicates permanently deletes repeated rows and does not select records by a score threshold, so it would both lose data and fail the requirement.

Freeze Panes only locks header rows or columns in place while scrolling; it does not choose records by value.

Sort merely reorders all the rows, so it still shows every student rather than only those above 75.

Because Filter shows the qualifying subset without deleting anything, the correct answer is Filter.
