Mia took a test with 60 multiple-choice questions. Her teacher told her she got 88% correct.
A.Write and solve a proportion to figure out how many questions she got correct.
did she get 53 problems correct
53/60 = This does equal about 88% (Real value is 88 1/3 % but this rounds to 88%)

To solve this question, we can set up a proportion. Let's call the number of questions Mia got correct as "x".
The proportion can be set up as follows:
x/60 = 88/100
To solve for x, we need to cross-multiply:
100x = 60 * 88
Now, we can divide both sides by 100 to isolate x:
x = (60 * 88) / 100
To get the final answer, we can calculate this expression:
x = 52.8
So Mia got approximately 52.8 questions correct.
