Step-by-step explanation:
highest marks = 87
let the lowest marks be 'I'
then highest marks is 2x + 7
Lowest marks :-
2x + 7 = 87
2x = 87 - 7
2x = 80
x = 80 ÷ 2
x = 40
therefore the lowest marks is 40........

Let the lowest score be 'l'.
Highest mark is 87.
By question,
2l+7=87
2l=87-7
2l=80
l=80/2
l=40.
Therefore lowest mark is 40.
