Z

Ranking Students by PCBM Marks

To determine which student gets the 3rd rank based on total marks in PCBM, we first need to calculate the total marks for each student.

Marks Table

Student P C B M
W 70 90 50 85
X 55 80 95 60
Y 60 20 90 40
Z 90 80 40 65

Total Marks Calculation

The total marks for each student are calculated by summing their marks across the four subjects (P, C, B, M). The formula used is:

$ \text{Total Marks} = \text{Marks}_P + \text{Marks}_C + \text{Marks}_B + \text{Marks}_M $

  • Student W: $70 + 90 + 50 + 85 = 295$ marks
  • Student X: $55 + 80 + 95 + 60 = 290$ marks
  • Student Y: $60 + 20 + 90 + 40 = 210$ marks
  • Student Z: $90 + 80 + 40 + 65 = 275$ marks

Ranking Students

Students are ranked based on their total marks in descending order (highest total marks get the 1st rank).

Rank Student Total Marks
1st W 295
2nd X 290
3rd Z 275
4th Y 210

Conclusion

Based on the calculated total marks and the resulting ranks, student Z obtains the 3rd rank.
