so what is it

Well, let's see here. Peggy answered 34 questions correctly out of a total of 40 questions. So, to find the percentage, we need to divide 34 by 40.

34 / 40 equals 0.85.

To convert this to a percentage, we multiply by 100.

0.85 * 100 equals 85.

So the correct answer is indeed A. Peggy answered 85% of the questions correctly. Congratulations, Peggy!

To find the percentage of questions Peggy answered correctly, you first need to determine the fraction of questions she answered correctly.

To do this, divide the number of questions answered correctly (34) by the total number of questions on the test (40):

Correctly answered questions / Total questions = 34 / 40 = 0.85

Now, to convert this decimal into a percentage, multiply it by 100:

0.85 * 100 = 85%

So Peggy answered 85% of the questions correctly.

Therefore, the answer is A. 85%.
