CBSE Class 11-science Answered

Let the marks scored in Mathematics be x

Then the marks in Science = 2x

and the marks in English = x + 3x = 4x

Average = fraction numerator straight x plus 2 straight x plus 4 straight x over denominator 3 end fraction greater or equal than 70

7x ≥ 210

  x ≥ 30

So the student must score atleast 30 marks in Mathematics.
