Answer:
The number of correct answers is 28
Explanation:
The value of a correct answer = +3
The value of a wrong answer = -1
The number of questions Ramesh answered = All the questions
The number of mistakes in the question = 5,
Let x represent the number of correct answers therefore, we get;
+3 × x + (-1) × 5 = 79
∴ x = (79 - (-1) × 5)/+3 = 28
The number of correct answers, x = 28
