So, we have the percentage she gets which is, 90% and the number of questions she answers correctly, which is 27
To find the number of questions in the exam, make an equation
(90% =
= 0.9)
=
cross multiply and equate them
90x = 27 x 100
90x = 2700
divide by 90 on either sides to isolate x in order to find the answer
90 and 90 cancels out
x = 30So your final answer will be,
there were 30 questions in the exam paper.
