Liz scored higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Correct answers by Austin = 92%

Total questions = 50

Correctly answered by Liz = 47

Percent of Liz's correct answers = $\frac{Correct\ answers}{Total\ questions}*100$

Percent of Liz's correct answers = $\frac{47}{50}*100$

Percent of Liz's correct answers = $\frac{4700}{50} = 94\%$

As 94% is higher than 92%, therefore;

Liz scored higher.
