Answer:
68.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the initial ratio of 24 points out of 35 possible points, you can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to find the expected number of points math students would ear on a test of 100 possible points:
Where 'x' is the number of points earned on the 100 point test.
Cross-multiply: 35x = 24(100) or 35x = 2400
Divide both sides by 35: 35x/35 = 2400/35
Solve for x: x = 68.6
