Answer 1

SOLUTION

GIVEN

Bree took another math test and scored 152 points, which was 95% of the possible points on the test.

TO DETERMINE

The total number of possible points

EVALUATION

Let the total number of possible points = P

Now it is given that Bree took another math test and scored 152 points, which was 95% of the possible points on the test

So by the given condition

$\displaystyle \sf{P \times \frac{95}{100} = 152 }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: P = 152 \times \frac{100}{95} }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: P = 160 }$

FINAL ANSWER

The total number of possible points = 160
