Answer:

b) 29 of 50 for science

Explanation:

We would be finding out his best results by calculating the percentage of his scores in the various exams he took.

a) 34 of 60 for history

34/ 60 × 100 = 56.67%

b) 29 of 50 for science

29/50 × 100 = 58%

c) 39 of 70 for Music

39/70 × 100 = 55.7%

d) 44 of 80 for Math

44/80 × 100 = 55%

Looking at the percentage of his scores in various subject in his exams, the subject with the highest percentage is the subject where he had the best result.

That subject with 58% = 29/50 for science.

Therefore, his best results is option b) 29 of 50 for science.
