Since we are calculating the amount that he got correct, we must divide the numerator by the denominator or make the denominator equal 100. I will do it the second way as it is easier in this case.

25*4 = 100
21*4 = 84

84/100 = 0.84

As a decimal, Andrew got 0.84 of his test correct. Hope this helps!
