Answer:

25

Explanation:

Total points: (20x4) + (10x7) = 150

Justin scored 124/150

150-124 = ones he didn't get correct

150-124 = 26

26 = 4 + 7 + 4 +7 + 4

We are trying to figure out how many he answered correctly NOT how many he got wrong.

There are 30 questions. He got 5 wrong. That means he got 25 correct.
