The student, who got at least 60 in first test, falls in the second half of the plot. Thus, the 50% of students got atleast 60% marks. In the retake test, all 100% student got at least 60 on test.

In the first test 1/4 are passed while in second test 3/4 students are passed and got the marks 65 or more than this, Thus the number of student pass more in this test,
