Answer:

21 answers.

Explanation:

First, change the percentage into a decimal point. Move the decimal point to the left two place values and drop the percentage sign:

70% = 70/100 = 0.70

Next, multiply 0.70 with the total amount of questions (30):

30 x 0.70 = 21

21 answers must be correct.

Check:

Divide 21 with 30:

21/30 = 0.70 = 70%
