I am going to assume that the question means that Andrea could have earned 220 points on the assignment, but instead because the assignment was late, she was marked down 20 points. (Reduced to 20 points is kind of awkward wording).

0.09, as a percentage, is 9%. (Again, 0.0909, 9.09%, could be rounded up to 9.1%).

Hope this helps!
