Question

On an exam you get two points for every question answered correctly, zero points for each question left blank and lose one-half point for each question answered incorrectly. what is your total score on the exam if you answered 13 questions correctly, leave 7 questions blank and answer 5 questions incorrectly?

Answer 1

Using multiplication, the total score on the exam if you answered 13 questions correctly, leave 7 questions blank and answer 5 questions incorrectly is 39 point.

According to the question,

For each correct question, you get 2 points, and there are 22 correct questions, so multiply 22 by 2

22 * 2 = 44 points.

For each question left blank, you get 0 points, and there are 7 questions left blank, so multiply 7 by 0

7 * 0 = 0 points

For each incorrect question, you get -1 point, and there are 5 incorrect questions, so multiply 5 by -1

5 * (-1) = -5 points.

The total number of score = 22*2 + 7*0 + 5*(-1) = 44 + 0 - 5 = 39 points.

Hence, using multiplication, the total score on the exam if you answered 13 questions correctly, leave 7 questions blank and answer 5 questions incorrectly is 39 point.
