Jasmine has taken an online boating safety course and is now completing her end-of-course exam. As she answers each question, the progress bar at the bottom of the screen shows what portion of the test she has finished. She has just completed Question 16, and the progress bar shows she is 20% complete. How many total questions are on the test?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Total questions are 80 questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the total number of questions and percentage of progress is direct proportion, which means the larger of the number of questions, the larger of the progress's percentage and vice versa.

[tex]\boxed{\frac{x_1}{y_1} =\frac{x_2}{y_2} }[/tex]

Given:

total question₁ (x₁) = 16

percentage₁ (y₁) = 20%

percentage₂ (y₂) = 100%

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{16}{20\%} =\frac{x_2}{100\%}[/tex]

[tex]x_2=\frac{100\%}{20\%}\times16[/tex]

    [tex]=80\ questions[/tex]
