ANSWER
Marks given for one correct answer = 5
So, marks given for 10 correct answers
= 5 X 10 = 50
Radhika's score = 30
Marks obtained for incorrect answer
= 30- 50 = -20
Marks given for one incorrect answer
= (-2)
Therefore, number of incorrect answers
= (−20)÷(−2)=10

Let Total no of Question be X
She Has Given 10 Correct Answers
So, Incorrect Ans be X-10
Equation forms (10*5)+(X-10)*-2=21
50+(-2X)+10=21
50-2X+10=21
60-2X=21
60-21=2X
39=2X
X=19.5
Approx There are 20 Question And she answer 10 Ans Correct So Incorrect Ans be 20-10=10
Jaya given 4 Correct Ans so Incorrect be 20-4=16 incorrect Ans
Hope it helped you
