Diego’s history teacher writes a test for the class with 26 questions. The test is worth 123 points and has two types of questions: multiple choice worth 3 points each, and essays worth 8 points each.

How many essay questions are on the test? Explain your reasoning.

i think the answer would be 15, 8•15=120, leaving 3 points left which would be an multiple choice question, hope this helps:))
