Correct Answer: 4
Solution :
Maximum marks = 400
Marks obtained by A = 92 + 90 + 90 + 80 = 352
Percentage of A $=\frac{352}{400}\times100=88$%
Marks obtained by B = 90 + 80 + 85 + 85 = 340
Percentage of B $=\frac{340}{400}\times100=85$%
Marks obtained by C = 80 + 80 + 65 + 70 = 295
Percentage of C $=\frac{295}{400}\times100=73.75$%
Marks obtained by D = 85 + 80 + 82 + 75 = 322
Percentage of D $=\frac{322}{400}\times100=80.5$%
Marks obtained by E = 80 + 75 + 75 + 85 = 315
Percentage of E $=\frac{315}{400}\times100=78.75$%
Marks obtained by F = 90 + 90 + 90 + 85 = 355
Percentage of F $=\frac{355}{400}\times100=88.75$%
Only four students' overall percentage is 80% and above.
Hence, the correct answer is 4.
