A student scored 40% of the 90 marks available in a test. How many marks did the student get?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 36
- Step 1: 40% of 90 = 40/100 x 90.
- Step 2: The student got 36 marks.
Answer
36.
Why not the others: 225: the total was divided by the percentage. 50: the percentage was subtracted from the total. 54: the marks lost were found instead of the marks gained.
