Answer:

12 problems

Step-by-step explanation:

All problems were of equal value

Let x be the number of problems in the test

We apply a rule of three

x -------------------------------  100%

(x-10) --------------------------- 17%

(x-10)*100%/(x)   = 17%

(x-10)/(x)   = 0.17

(x-10)   = 0.17*x

0.83*x = 10

x = 12.05

x = 12 problems
