Answer:

D. For each student, there are 5 markers.

Explanation:

A class of 25 students shares a set of 100 markers.

5 students are absent.

Therefore,

No. of students present = 25 - 5 = 20

No. of markers = 100

No. of markers each student gets = 100/20 = 10/2 = 5

Hence, each student gets 5 markers.
