Answer:

Hey mate here is your answer...

If the value of all other except the largest is 55..

Largest will be 60*10-55*9=600-495=105..

However the top 5 are distinct and the smallest of these can be 55, so remaining THREE will be 1,2,&3 more so total combined value will be 1+2+3 or 6 more..

Therefore the largest will be 6 less than max possible..... 105-6=99
