Mr Linton, the science teacher, gives out scores for the written exam and the practical experiment exam. These two scores are then totalled together to provide an overall mark.

Maya and Sarah received the same overall marks for the end of term exams for Science.

Maya: “If I received 40 marks in the practical experiment and you received 40 marks in the practical experiment, that means our written exams must also have been the same marks!”

Sarah: “If our written exam marks were different, then our practical experiment marks must also have been different.”

If the information in the box is true, whose reasoning is correct?
