ik im late but really, is the answer 2 ???

To determine how many points each multiple choice question was worth, we need to find the total number of points for the multiple choice questions and divide it by the number of questions answered correctly.

Francine got 34 multiple choice questions correct and Cheryl got 30 multiple choice questions correct.

Next, we need to find the total number of points for the multiple choice questions. Let's assume each multiple choice question is worth "x" points.

Francine received 14 points for her essay. Therefore, the total number of points for the multiple choice questions is 14x.

Cheryl received 22 points for her essay. Therefore, the total number of points for the multiple choice questions is 22x.

Since Francine and Cheryl received equal scores on the test, we can set up an equation:

34x + 14 = 30x + 22

Simplifying the equation:

34x - 30x = 22 - 14

4x = 8

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4:

x = 2

Therefore, each multiple choice question is worth 2 points.
