Well, Carlos scored 75% on the test, which means he got 75% of the questions correct. To find out how many questions he got correct, we need to find 75% of 40.

So, 75% of 40 can be found by multiplying 40 by 0.75:

40 x 0.75 = 30

Therefore, Carlos got 30 questions correct on his math test. Keep up the good work, Carlos!

To find out how many questions Carlos got correct on his test, we first need to determine the number of questions he answered correctly as a percentage of the total number of questions.

If Carlos scored 75%, it means he answered 75% of the questions correctly, or 0.75 as a decimal.

Next, we can set up a proportion to find the number of questions Carlos got correct:

0.75 (correctly answered) / 1 (total) = x (correctly answered) / 40 (total)

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

0.75 * 40 = x * 1

30 = x

Therefore, Carlos got 30 questions correct on his test.
