Question

Nia answered 80% of the 40 questions on a test correctly. How many correct answers did she have?

Answer 1

32 questions 40 * .80 = 32

Answer 2

Nia answered correct answers = 80% of the 40 questions

When we remove % sign from a number, we divide that number by 100

=
`(80)/(100)` of 40

=
`(80)/(100) * 40`

Cancelling the two zeroes from numerator and denominator,

=
`8 * 4`

= 32.

Total correct answers answered by Nia = 32
