Answer:
83.4% or 83%
Step-by-step explanation:
when trying to find a percent, divide the numerator (# of correct answers) by the denominator (# of total questions possible to get correct)
Which would be 16.67 divided by 20 which equals .8335. Move the decimal point over two placements which would be 83.35. I rounded it up to 83.4. If trying to find a whole number not a decimal it would be 84%. Depending on the grading scale, it would be a B.

25% = 1/4

1/4 x 4 = 1 (total)
150 x 4 = 600
