Answer 1

sorry for my handwriting

Answer 2

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the science marks be x

we are given that Ram got twice as many marks in English as in science

English marks= 2x

We are also given that the ratio of his marks in English and Maths is 2:3

Math marks = 3x

Now we are given that his total is 180

So, $x+2x+3x=180$

$6x=180$

$x=\frac{180}{6}$

$x=30$

Hence the total marks in science is 30
