harina [27]

Answer:

James answered 51 questions correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Slide the decimal 2 places to the left in the percentage (85% = .85)

2) Multiply total by new decimal (60 x .85)

3) All done! (51)

Keep in mind that 100% is just 1 whole. Therefor 85% of one whole is .85. In this problem, 60 represents our whole.
