There are 50 questions to answer in a trivia contest. Each player starts with 100 points. He or she earns 10 points for each cor
rect answer but loses 4 points with each incorrect answer. Each player must answer all 50 questions. What is the fewest number of questions a contestant must answer to get a score over 350? I just need to know how to set it up?
the fewest number you would have to answer to get 350 would be 25.
to get the fewest number you would not be able to miss any before reaching 350 points. since you are aiming for a minimum of 350 points and you start out with 100 you would divide 250 by 10 to get 25
explanation: 5 1/3 divided by 2/3 equals 8. To find out how many batches were made, you need to divide the total amount used by the amount needed for one batch.
If Herman has been put on the diet for 4 weeks and has lost the same amount of weight each week you could divide 412 by 4 and get 103, not sure about the simplified mixed number though. Sorry.
