April scored 77% on her final exam. If each question was worth 4 points and there were 120 possible points on the exam, how many questions did April answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
30
8

13

Solution

April scored 77% on the test meaning she earned 77% of the possible points on the test. There were 120 possible points on the test so she earned 120 x 0.77 = 92 points. Each question is worth 4 points so she got \( \frac{92}{4} \) = 23 questions right.

Solve for \( \frac{6!}{4!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{840} \)
\( \frac{1}{42} \)
30
336

Solution

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:

\( \frac{6!}{4!} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5}{1} \)
\( 6 \times 5 \)
