1. To pass in a subject, one must obtain an average of 33 out of 100 or higher to pass in the

subject in five examinations. If a student's marks in the four examinations are 28, 31, 40 and 37, then find the minimum marks a student must obtain to pass in the subject. A student obtained 42 marks in the fifth exam. Do you think student has passed in the subject? What value system does he possess?
