    53 marks

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To sue a linear equation to solve the given problem, we must assign a function to the score of one of them. Let the score of Azmah be N. Then given that Azmah scored 17 marks more than Yazid, Yazid's score will be

    = N - 17

    Given that Suzana's score is twice of Yazid's score, then Suzana's score

    = 2 (N - 17)

    If their total score is 161 then

    N + N - 17 + 2 (N - 17) = 161

    4N = 161 + 51

    4N = 212

    N = 53. This is Azmah's score
