Geology and Physics Marks Comparison

This question requires us to analyze the provided table of marks for 4 students (A, B, C, D) across 4 subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Geology) to find a specific student. We need to identify the student who achieved the highest marks in Geology and simultaneously scored the least marks in Physics.

Exam Marks Data

Student Physics (%) Chemistry (%) Maths (%) Geology (%)
A 85 90 70 95
B 82 95 70 95
C 86 65 75 85
D 80 60 75 97

Highest Geology Marks Analysis

First, let's find out which student scored the highest marks in Geology. We will examine the 'Geology (%)' column:

  • Student A: 95%
  • Student B: 95%
  • Student C: 85%
  • Student D: 97%

Comparing these scores, the highest marks obtained in Geology is 97%, which was achieved by Student D.

Least Physics Marks Analysis

Next, we need to identify the student who obtained the least marks in Physics. We will look at the 'Physics (%)' column:

  • Student A: 85%
  • Student B: 82%
  • Student C: 86%
  • Student D: 80%

Comparing these scores, the least marks obtained in Physics is 80%, which was achieved by Student D.

Student Meeting Both Criteria

The question asks for the student who has the highest marks in Geology AND the least marks in Physics.

  • From our analysis, Student D scored the highest in Geology (97%).
  • Student D also scored the least in Physics (80%).

Therefore, Student D is the one who meets both conditions specified in the question.
