Answer 1

Explanation:

First we need to find the score of the incorrect answers and the questions that were not answered.

Score for the incorrect answers = 4*(-2) = -8

Score for the questions not answered = 6*(-1) = -6

Score for the questions answered correctly = 106 - [ (-8) + (-6) ]

= 106 -[-14]

= 106 + 14

= 120

Number of questions answered correctly = total score for questions that were answered correctly ÷ score of 1 correct answer

= 120 ÷ 4

= 30

30 questions were answered correctly.
