A - J =8
A =8 +J
ALSO K - A = 12
K = 12 + A
K = 12 + (8 + J). (since A = 8 + J)
and A+K+J = 205
so 8+J + 12 + 8+J + J = 205
3J + 28 = 205
3J = 177
J = 177/3
J = 59
A =8 +J
ALSO K - A = 12
K = 12 + A
K = 12 + (8 + J). (since A = 8 + J)
and A+K+J = 205
so 8+J + 12 + 8+J + J = 205
3J + 28 = 205
3J = 177
J = 177/3
J = 59

= p
Hence,
= p - 8
Also,
= p + 12
Total marks scored by Amit + Joseph + kumar
= 205
p + p - 8 + p + 12 = 205
3p + 4 = 205
3p = 205 - 4
3p = 201
⇒ p = 67
Hence we get,
= 67 - 8
= 59 marks
Therefore,
