Which tyre was it?

Which tyre was it?

At a university the two students received A’s in their Math all through the semester.
But on the night before the final exam, they partied and could not reach the exam centre in time. Their excuse to the teacher was that they had a flat tyre and requested for a make up test.
The teacher agreed and wrote a test and sent them to two separate rooms to complete the test. The first question was worth 5 marks and 2nd question was 95 marks – which read “ which tyre was it?”
How likely will they pass this test?
