In the test, each question has equal weight. if the students could answer the question correctly. The
amounts of the question are 40. So, if the students could answer 32 questions. It will write something
like this:
40 : 100 = X
X x 32 = ? (score)
(40 is total questions, to 100%)
(32 is overall percentage)
Then solve for x, which will be the percentage students received.
