Step-by-step explanation:

Number of questions attempted = 7

Total score = 8

Find the number of questions answered correctly.

We know that,

- if 2 marks are awarded for correct answer so total must be an even number.

- if -1 is given for wrong answer then the answer must be in negative.

So, now, the answer is an even number which is 8.

8 / 2 = 4

Answer => The student answered 4 out of 7 questions correctly.
