A test has twenty questions worth 100 points. The test consists of True/False questions worth 3 points each and multiple choice questions worth 11 points each. How many multiple choice questions are on the test?
Let the number of true/false questions be t. Let the number of multiple choice questions be m. We're given two equations:
No matter which method we pick, we get the same answer:
Let the number of true/false questions be t. Let the number of multiple choice questions be m. We're given two equations:
- m + t = 20
- 11m + 3t = 100
No matter which method we pick, we get the same answer:
- m = 5
- t = 15
