Question

suppose marisol scored a 96% on an english test. There were 50 questions on the test. How many did marisol answer correctly?

Answer 1

Answer:  48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Marisol scored a 96% on an English test.

We can rewrite 96% as 0.96  [To convert percent into decimal we divide it by 100]

There were 50 questions on the test.

Then, the number of questions Marisol answered correctly:-

$50\times0.96=48$

Hence,  Marisol answered 48 questions correctly.

Answer 2

Well if there were 50 questions it would be 2 points each so if he ended up with 96% he must have missed 2 questions
