Answer:

48 questions

Explanation:

To find out how many questions Cary correctly answered at the exam, multiply the percentage of correct answers by the total number of questions.

As Cary correctly answered 80% of 60 questions, multiply 80% by 60:


\begin{aligned}\textsf{Correctly answered questions}&=80\%\;\textsf{of}\;60\\\\&= (80)/(100) * 60\\\\&=(80 * 60)/(100)\\\\&=(4800)/(100)\\\\&=48\end{aligned}

Therefore, Cary correctly answered 48 questions at the exam.
