Answer:Her score is 26

Explanation:

To find the answer, we must deduct the total amount of points that are answered correctly

By the total amount of points that are answered incorrectly.

Because = 1 answered correctly = 4 points

= 1 answered incorrectly = deduct 7

points

So= 87 answered correctly × 4 points

= 348 points

So= 46 answered incorrectly × 7 points

=deduct 322 points

Then the answer will be= 348 - 322= 26

Hope this helps!
