Question 25 Exercise 1.3

In a class test containing 10 questions, 5 marks are awarded for every correct answer and (–2) marks are awarded for every incorrect answer and 0 for questions not attempted. Mohan gets four correct and six incorrect answers. What is his score?

Answer:

From the question,

Marks awarded for 1 correct answer = 5

Then,

Total marks awarded for 4 correct answer = 4 × 5 = 20

Marks awarded for 1 wrong answer = -2

Then,

Total marks awarded for 6 wrong answer = 6 × -2 = -12

∴Total score obtained by Mohan = 20 + (-12)

= 20 – 12

= 8
