A.
36%
B.
72%
C.
24%
D.
75%

Answer 1

To find the percentage of questions Darren got correct, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Correct Answers}}{\text{Total Questions}} \right) \times 100
\]

In this case, Darren got 36 correct out of 48 questions:

\[
\text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{36}{48}\right) \times 100
\]

Now, calculate \(\frac{36}{48}\):

\[
\frac{36}{48} = 0.75
\]

Now, multiply by 100:

\[
0.75 \times 100 = 75
\]

So, Darren got 75% of the questions correct. Therefore, the answer is:

**D. 75%**
