Ob a multiple choice exam with 25 questions , the instructor scored the exams as follows: 4 points for each correct answer. What was the score of a student who had 14 correct answers , 3 blank answers, and 8 wrong answers?
The questions doesn't provide sufficient information. I recommend you look over your question again.
Score = 4 * 14 = 56 Points
To calculate the student's score, we need to determine the number of correct, blank, and wrong answers.
Given:
Number of correct answers = 14
Number of blank answers = 3
Number of wrong answers = 8
Scoring system:
Each correct answer = 4 points
Now, let's calculate the score for each category:
Score for correct answers = Number of correct answers * Points for each correct answer
= 14 * 4
= 56
Score for blank answers = Number of blank answers * Points for each correct answer
= 3 * 4
= 12
Score for wrong answers = Number of wrong answers * Points for each correct answer
= 8 * 0 (since wrong answers do not receive any points)
= 0
Finally, we add up the scores for correct, blank, and wrong answers to get the total score:
Total score = Score for correct answers + Score for blank answers + Score for wrong answers
= 56 + 12 + 0
= 68
Therefore, the student's score is 68.
