Question

6. Myra attempted all questions in a competitive exam. 3 marks were given for a correct answer, 2 marks were
deducted for an incorrect answer and 0 marks for questions not attempted. If Myra gets a score of 100 marks
by attempting 60 questions correctly, find the total number of questions in the exam.​

Answer 1

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

60(3) =180 are the marks got for correct one.

now assuming she attempted all the questions.

180+p(-2)= 100 where p is nu of questions she got wrong.

so 80=2p

that means p=40

now 60 right and 40 wrong leads to 100 nu of total questions

Answer 2

Answer:

MARKS FOR CORRECT ANSWER :- 3

MARKS FOR INCORRECT ANSWER :- -2

UNATTEMPTED ANSWER :- 0

100MARKS FOR 60 QUESTIONS

BUT , IT SHOULD BE 180 MARKS AS 3 MARKS FOR EACH CORRECT ANSWER.

NOW WE GET MORE 120 MARKS IS THERE

SO, WE GET HERE THAT TOTAL QUESTIONS IS 100
