Question

Deanna gets 3 problems incorrect on a math quiz. Her score is 85%. How many questions are on the quiz?

Answer 1

Answer:

20 questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  x  be the number of questions on the quiz.

85 %  means  85  out of  100  (or  85/ 100  )

85/ 100   = 3/x

--->100-85=15

--->15/3=5

--->100/5=20  

Meaning each question was worth 5% and there were 20 questions.
