The coefficient of rank correlation of the marks obtained by 10 students in statistics and accountancy was found to be 0.8. It was later discovered that the difference in ranks in the two subjects obtained by one of the students was wrongly taken as 7 instead of 9. Find the correct coefficient of rank correlation.
