Question

You answer 32 questions correctly on a 45-question test. You need a score of at least 70% to pass. Do you pass? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer: Yes, but narrowly
71.1%
Explanation:
100%=45
x%=32
100×/x% = 45/32
Cross multiply
x = 71.1111%

32÷45= 71.1111111111111 (repeating decimal)

then we round, and we get 71%
