Step-by-step explanation:
Given, the highest marks are 86.
Let the lowest marks be x .
Then, it is given that the highest marks are three times the lowest marks minus seven .
So, the equation will be
86=3x-7
On transposing we get,
86+7=3x
93=3x
x = 93/3
x = 31
Therefore, the lowest marks in the class are 31.
