Solution : Given that the average mark of 60 students is 65. Total marks = (60 × 65) = 3900 The average mark of half of the students = 85 Therefore, total marks of 30 students = 30 × 85 = 2550 Total marks of the remaining students = 3900 – 2550 = 1350 So, the Average mark of the remaining 30 students = $\frac{1350}{30}$ = 45 Hence, the correct answer is 45.
