Here is your answer
Let the number of correct answer is x
So the number of wrong answer is 60- x
ATQ
\begin{lgathered}4 \times x - 1 \times (60 - x) = 130
4x - 60 + x = 130
4x + x = 130 + 60
5x = 190
x = \frac{190}{5}
x = 38\end{lgathered}
4×x−1×(60−x)=1304x−60+x=1304x+x=130+6
05x=190x=5190x=38
Hence the number of correct answer is 38
Hope it helps you
