Question

The written portion of bens driving test had 40 questions Ben correctly answered 12 more questions than he missed how many questions did Ben missed. ?!

Answer 1

We wil name x to the amount of correctly answered questions. Then, we get:

`(x-12)+x=40`
`2x-12=40`
`2x=40+12`
`2x=52`
`x=(52)/(2)`
`x=26`

Ben had 26 correct answers, so he missed 40-26= 14.
