ANSWER

80.00%

Step-by-step explanation

Donovan took a 45 question math test and got 36 correct.

To find the percentage of correct answers, we have to divide the number of correct answers by the total number of questions and then multiply by 100.

That is:


(36)/(45)\cdot\text{ 100 = 80.00\%}

80.00% of his answers were correct answers.
