There are 34 questions on a test. John answers 22 of them correctly. What is John's percentage error?

Respuesta :

Answer:

35.29%

Explanation:

no. of questions in test = 34

no. of questions answered correctly = 22

therefore, no. of questions answered incorrectly = 34 - 22

                                                                                 = 12

error percentage = 12/34 * 100

                             = 35.29%

Answer: John's percentage error is 35.3 %.

Explanation:

To calculate the percentage error, we use the equation:

[tex]\%\text{ error}=\frac{|\text{Experimental value - Accepted value}|}{\text{Accepted value}}\times 100[/tex]

We are given:

Number of questions answered by John = 22

Total number of questions = 34

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\%\text{ error}=\frac{|22-34|}{34}\times 100\\\\\%\text{ error}=35.3\%[/tex]

Hence, John's percentage error is 35.3 %.
