total marks of 40 student is =72*40=2880

total of wrong marks is 64+62 +84=210
total of correct marks is 60+65+73 =198

it means wrong marks is more than correct marks by 12
because 210-198=12

it also means that it we reduce 12 marks from whole marks of 40 student then we get actual marks of 40 students
ir means 2880-12=2868


and the avg of 40 student is 2868/40=71.7
