Sticky Note
A candidate is participating in a 40-question assessment scoring 2.5 marks per correct answer and deducting 1 per wrong one. He attempts 34 and scores exactly 67. How many were correct?
  1. 26
  2. 28
  3. 27
  4. No whole-number solution exists under the stated scoring system.
Explanation

Let correct answers = x and wrong answers = 34 − x.

Score equation: 2.5x − 1(34 − x) = 67

Therefore: 3.5x − 34 = 67 → 3.5x = 101 → x = 28.857

Since the number of correct answers must be a whole number, the stated score of 67 is impossible.
