Total number of questions = 50
Number of questions answered incorrectly = 5
Therefore,
Number of questions answered correctly = 50-5 = 45 questions

Now, to get the percentage of correct answers, we will divide the number of correct answers by the total number of questions and then multiply the quotient by 100 as follows:
% of correct answers = (45/50) * 100 = 90%

Comparing the calculated value to the choices we have, we will find that the correct choice is:
D. 90%
