To calculate the rank correlation coefficient, you can use the Spearman's Rank Correlation Coefficient formula. First, you need to rank the data and then apply the formula. Here's how you can do it step by step:

1. Rank the data for both Mathematics and Physics separately, considering tied values by giving them the average rank:

For Mathematics:
- 65 gets rank 1.
- 76 gets rank 2.
- 78 gets rank 3.5 (average of 3 and 4).
- 80 gets rank 3.5 (average of 3 and 4).
- 80 gets rank 6.5 (average of 6 and 7).
- 85 gets rank 8.
- 85 gets rank 8.
- 80 gets rank 6.5 (average of 6 and 7).

For Physics:
- 78 gets rank 4.
- 78 gets rank 4.
- 80 gets rank 6.
- 82 gets rank 7.
- 86 gets rank 8.
- 88
