The correct answer is

C

Understanding Aggregate Marks Calculation

The question asks us to find the student who scored the lowest total marks when combining the marks from all the subjects listed: English, Hindi, and Maths. This total is also known as the aggregate marks.

To solve this, we need to calculate the sum of marks for each student across these three subjects. The student with the smallest sum will be the one with the least aggregate marks.

Analyzing Student Performance Data

We are given the marks for five students (A, B, C, D, and E) in three subjects (English, Hindi, and Maths) in a table:

Name of the studentEnglishHindiMaths
A546567
B528878
C484867
D418760
E747055

Calculating Aggregate Marks for Each Student

We will now calculate the aggregate marks for each student by adding their marks in English, Hindi, and Maths.

  • For Student A: English + Hindi + Maths = $54 + 65 + 67 = 186$
  • For Student B: English + Hindi + Maths = $52 + 88 + 78 = 218$
  • For Student C: English + Hindi + Maths = $48 + 48 + 67 = 163$
  • For Student D: English + Hindi + Maths = $41 + 87 + 60 = 188$
  • For Student E: English + Hindi + Maths = $74 + 70 + 55 = 199$

Finding the Student with the Least Aggregate Marks

Now we compare the aggregate marks calculated for each student:

  • Student A: 186
  • Student B: 218
  • Student C: 163
  • Student D: 188
  • Student E: 199

Comparing these totals, we can see that the minimum aggregate mark is 163, which belongs to Student C.

Therefore, Student C scored the least marks in aggregate of all the subjects.

A546567186
B528878218
C484867163
D418760188

This table clearly shows that Student C has the lowest aggregate score of 163.

Additional Information on Aggregate Scores

Aggregate score refers to the total score obtained by summing up the marks or grades from multiple subjects or tests. It is a common way to evaluate overall academic performance.

Calculating aggregate scores helps in:

  • Ranking students based on overall performance.
  • Determining eligibility for courses or scholarships.
  • Understanding a student's general academic standing rather than performance in a single subject.

In this problem, calculating the aggregate score for each student was the key step to identify who had the lowest overall performance across the three subjects.
