To calculate your score based on getting 7 out of 10 questions correct on a test worth 40 points, you can follow these steps:
-
First, determine the points per question. Since there are 10 questions worth a total of 40 points, each question is worth: \[ \text{Points per question} = \frac{40 \text{ points}}{10 \text{ questions}} = 4 \text{ points per question} \]
-
Next, multiply the number of questions you got right (7) by the points per question: \[ \text{Score} = 7 \text{ questions} \times 4 \text{ points per question} = 28 \text{ points} \]
So, your score would be 28 out of 40 points.
