    86

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that there are 30 students in class 10R and the mean marks for the entire class was 70%. Therefore,

    total mark of class = 70 x 30 = 2100

    Given that there are 20 boys in the class and the mean marks for the boys was 62 %. Therefore,

    total mark of boys = 62 x 20 = 1240

    To calculate the mean mark for the girls we need to find the total number of girl and total mark of girls.

    total number of girl = 30 - 20 (boys) = 10 total mark of girls = total mark of class - total mark of boys = 2100 - 1240 = 860 mean mark for girls = 860 / 10 = 86
