Not completely sure how to answer your question but all 20 questions where worth 5 points each which she would have gotten a 100 if she got all right but she got 15 which her score would be 75. I think in a ratio of correct to incorrect would be 75:100 , I'm not sure completely.
Hello!
To solve this, first say x = number of hours grading.
We can set up fractions to represent how much each one of them can grade in one hour. To do this, divide the number of essays by the number of hours it would take for them to grade them. Therefore, the professor would be able to grade 5/2 essays in one hour, and her assistant would be able to grade 7/3 essays in one hour.
Now, set up your equation.
5/2x + 7/3x = 40
Since x = number of hours spent grading, multiply that by the respective fractions we calculated earlier to get the number of essays they would grade in x hours. Set the equation equal to 40 as you are looking for 40 essays done.
Now, solve the equation. First, set a common denominator, add the two fractions together, then simplify.
5/2x + 7/3x = 40
15/6x + 14/6x = 40
29/6x = 40
x = 40/(29/6)
x = 40 * (6/29)
x = 240/29
x = about 8.3
Therefore, your answer is about 8.3 hours, or about 8 - 9 hours.
Hope this helps!
