The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Let's analyze the statements:
Statement A: The average marks in Hindi, Math, and Biology are 72, but this doesn't provide Mohan's specific marks in Hindi.
Statement B: The total marks in Hindi and Math are 129, but it doesn't specify how many are from Hindi alone.
Statement C: The total marks in History and Biology are 143, but this is irrelevant to Hindi marks.
Combinations:
1. A and B: Gives the average of three subjects and total of Hindi and Math, but not enough to find Hindi marks.
2. A and C: Provides average and total for History and Biology, but no info about Hindi or Math.
3. A and B or C: Neither B nor C alone offers sufficient information about Hindi marks.
4. A, B, and C together: Still lacks direct information about Hindi marks.
So, the correct option is (D): All A, B, and C together are not sufficient to determine Mohan's marks in Hindi.
