Question

Penelope is taking a multiple choice test with a total of 40 points available. Each question is worth exactly 5 points. What would be Penelope's test score (out of 40) if she got 3 questions wrong? What would be her score if she got xx questions wrong?

Answer 1

Because each question is worth 5 points and the test is 40 points, there are only 8 questions.
If she got 3 questions wrong she would miss 15 points on the test which is a score of 25/40
For every question she gets wrong her score drops by 5 points
