Answer:

Explanation:

1. First you need your let statement which is mostly the answer to the question: Let x = the amount of points on the test

2. Then make your proportion.

x/90 = 90/100. This is because 90% is 90/100.

Your answer is: x over 90 = 90/100 (make sure they are fractions. The / is the fraction bar.
