Answer 1

To convert the marks scored out of 50 to 10, it should be divided by 5.
So,
the highest mark will become,
47/5
=9.4
The lowest mark will become,
14/5
=2.8
The difference between the new maximum and minimum internal assessment scores is,
9.4 - 2.8
= 6.6

Thank you.
Hope this may help you.

Answer 2

Given,

Marks are given from 50

Highest marks in internal assessment = 47

Lowest marks in internal assessment = 14.

To find,

The difference between the new maximum and minimum internal assessments scores.

Solution,

The difference between the new maximum and minimum internal score is 6.6.

We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.

Now,

We need to convert the scores from 50 to 10.

To convert the scores, we need to divide the scores by:

50/100 × 10 ( The percentage is taken from 100.)

50/10 = 5

So, we need to divide the scores by 5 to convert them to a scale of 10.

Then,

New highest scores = 47/5

New highest scores = 9.4

New lowest scores = 14/5

New lowest scores = 2.8

Difference between the new maximum and minimum internal scores = 9.4 - 2.8

Hence, the difference between the new maximum and minimum internal scores will be 6.6.
