Question

HELP! with calculating points on test!

Answer 1

i just took a test, and it's said 46 points plus 4 points bonus....so how many points are each question worth?
and let say if i miss 10 question how many points would i have?

Answer 2

depends on how many questions.
If there was 1 question, it was worth 46
points.

Answer 3

oh yeah sorry, it was 50 questions test

Answer 4

So I assume that the 50 questions include the 4 bonus points, so it could be that 1 question is worth one point, but since they are bonus points, it would be logical if they are worth a bit more

\[ \frac{50}{46}= \frac{25}{23}\]

Answer 5

we never have bonus points here, so I am a bit confused with that )= Sorry.

Answer 6

uhhh let just leave out the bonus point thing, and just calculate the 46 points out of 50 questions, how would i do that ?

Answer 7

let say i missed 10 questions

Answer 8

50 questions are worth 46 points, it is linear therefore, you can either use a linear equation and match it to one or you can use:

\[ \frac{46}{50}\] that would be the worth of one question.

Answer 9

and you say you missed approximately 10 questions, that means you have 40 of 50 correct, so multiply that by 40, will get you your points.

Answer 10

36.8 Points
