Question

Chloe's teacher gave her a science test with 25 questions on it. She scored 80% on the test. How many questions did she answer correctly?

*My question is: Do I subtract 80 from 100 or leave the 80% as it is?

Answer 1

Hi there!

Since it's the amount of questions she did correctly, and not the amount of questions she misses, you don't subtract 80 from 100.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Neither, turn 80% into a decimal, 0.8, then multiply.
