Answer:

Each question had 4 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the questions be x points each. As both Gretchen and Ezia received equal scores, we can write the equation as:

18x+19=15x+31   (Let the questions be x points each)

Solving for x;

18x-15x=31-19

=> 3x=12

Dividing both sides by 3;

x = 4

Hence, each question had 4 points.

The scores were the same, so 

18m+19 = 15m+31 

<span>Now solve for m, the # points for each multiple-choice question.
