Its so easy suppose i have to find P's, Q's and R's individual marks in english then first of all see the graph, its given that total marks obtained by P and Q together = 133 and its ratio also given 7:12.

So, P will get = {7/(7+12)}*133 = (7/19)*133 = 49

So, Q will get = 133-49 = 84

Total Marks of Q and R together from the table given is = 180

Q's mark we already know which is 84

so, R's mark = 180-84=96
