Question

In a class test containing 20 questions,5 marks are given for every correct answer and minus 2 marks are given for every incorrect answer. Rekha attempted all question but only 12 of her answer is correct. what is the total score?

Answer 1

total questions=20
marks awarded for each correct answer=5
attempt correct answer=12

so total questions marks=20×5=100
and total correct answer marks=12×5=60

out of these 8 are wrong and 2 marks are detect for each wrong answer so 8×2=16

so marks scored=60-16=44
