Student C Marks Increase Calculation

To find the approximate percentage increase in marks for student C from 2023 to 2025, follow these steps:

  • Identify the marks for student C in the specified years from the table.
    • Marks in 2023: 65
    • Marks in 2025: 73
  • Calculate the increase in marks:

    Increase = Marks in 2025 - Marks in 2023

    Increase = $73 - 65 = 8$

  • Calculate the percentage increase using the formula:

    Percentage Increase = $ \frac{\text{Increase}}{\text{Original Marks (2023)}} \times 100 $

  • Substitute the values:

    Percentage Increase = $ \frac{8}{65} \times 100 $

  • Perform the calculation:

    Percentage Increase = $ 0.12307 \times 100 \approx 12.31\% $

  • Approximate the result to the nearest option. The value $12.31\%$ is approximately $12\%$.

Therefore, the approximate percentage increase of marks for student C from 2023 to 2025 is $12\%$.
