Question

Use the following score to answer each exercise : (1) Determine each student’s percent- please show all your work :)NOELLE : BRUCE : SEAN :LEIA : (2) List the students in order from worst score to best score : And don’t worry this is just a practice:)

Answer 1

To find the percent (p) you use the Total number of problems (T) and the number correct (C) and the next formula:

`p=(C)/(T)\cdot100`

Then:

Noelle:

T=25

C=18

p=72%

`p=(18)/(25)\cdot100=72`

Bruce:

T=20

C=14

p=70%

`p=(14)/(20)\cdot100=70`

Sean:

T=30

C=24

p=80%

`p=(24)/(30)\cdot100=80`

Leia:

T=40

C=31

p=77.5%

`p=(31)/(40)\cdot100=77.5`

-----------------------

Then, from worst score to best score:Bruce (70%), Noelle (72%), Leia (77.5%) and Sean (80%)
