To Solve this, you need to take 3 the number awarded for correct, and multiply that by 12 the number of correct. Which gets you 36. Then yoou need to find the difference between20 and 36 which gives 16. Then youu need to divide that by 2 to get your ansewr of 8 in 1. Follow the same procces for ii.
