First 4 average = 155

so total marks of first 4 = 155*4 = 620

last 4 average = 215

total marks of last 4 = 215*4 = 860

last 4 - first 4 marks = 860 - 620 = 240

first and last student marks = 240 and their average is 240/2 = 120


SrV12: srry,first one is 234
inhumandrowsey: then the answer is 240
SrV12: ohk
