Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows two number lines with four ticks marked on them at equal distances. The first number line, labeled points scored, has the first, second, and fourth ticks marked as 0, 5, and 75, respectively. The second number line, labeled correct answers, has the first two ticks marked as 0 and 1, respectively.
The double number line shows 5 points are scored for each correct answer. What is the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored?
(1 point)

To find the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored, we need to determine the ratio of points scored to correct answers.
From the given information, we know that for every 5 points scored, there is 1 correct answer.
Since there are 75 points scored, we can divide 75 by 5 to find the number of correct answers:
75 ÷ 5 = 15
Therefore, the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored is 15.
To determine the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored, we can refer to the double number line. We know that 5 points are scored for each correct answer.
Looking at the first number line (points scored), we see that the fourth tick is marked as 75.
Looking at the second number line (correct answers), we see that the tick corresponding to 75 points is not marked. However, we know that 5 points are scored for each correct answer.
Since 75 divided by 5 equals 15, we can conclude that there are 15 correct answers when 75 points are scored.
Therefore, the answer is 15.
To answer the question, we need to determine the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored. We can do this by looking at the relationship between the number of correct answers and the points scored on the number lines.
From the image, we can see that on the first number line (labeled "points scored"), the first tick is marked as 0 and the second tick is marked as 5. On the second number line (labeled "correct answers"), the first tick is also marked as 0, and the second tick is marked as 1.
Since the double number line shows that 5 points are scored for each correct answer, we can conclude that each tick on the "points scored" number line represents 5 points, and each tick on the "correct answers" number line represents 1 correct answer.
To find the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored, we can divide 75 (the number of points scored) by 5 (the number of points scored for each correct answer).
75 ÷ 5 = 15
Therefore, the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored is 15.
So the correct answer is 15.
