Question

Samantha answered 60 questions correctly on her multiple choice math final and earned a grade of 75%. How many total questions were on the final exam?

Answer 1

80

Explanation:

`(60)/(x) = (75)/(100)\\`

Then you cross multiply

6000 = 75×

Divide both sides by 75 to get x alone

`(6000)/(75) = (75x)/(75)`

x = 80

The total questions on the final exam was 80 questions
