(i) In which subject did the student score 105marks?

(Hint: for 540 marks, the central angle = 360°. So, for 105 marks, what is the central angle?)

(ii) How many more marks were obtained by thestudent in Mathematics than in Hindi?

(iii) Examine whether the sum of the marksobtained in Social Science and Mathematicsis more than that in Science and Hindi.

(Hint: Just study the central angles).
