The number of seniors who scored above 96% is 1.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Two percent of all seniors in a class of 50 have scored above 96% on an ext exam.

Now we need to find the number of seniors who scored above 96%

For this we need to find the two percent of 50.

2% of 50 can be calculated as:

`(100)/(100)`

`1`

Hence, the number of seniors who scored above 96% is 1.
