Answer:
126
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of correctly answered questions be x.
Let the wrongly answered questions be y.
Then,according to the question,
x+y=180 and 4x−y=450
Adding these two equations,
x+y+4x−y=450+180
5x=630
x=126
From the above equation,
126+y=180
y=54
Therefore, 126 questions are answered correctly
