I'm starting a new degree and had to take a math placement test -- of
course I bombed as usual. The minimum requirement was 41, I got a 21.
Anyway, one problem that perplexed me slightly was:
Mark took a French exam that consisted of 50 questions. He got an 80%
on 15 true or false questions and a 60% on 35 multiple choice
questions.
I couldn't figure it out, but ended up guessing that it was 70. Then I
ran it past the spouse and they muttered, while barely paying
attention, "Wouldn't it be 70?"
So is it just the average of the 2 scores? The number of problems
doesn't matter?
Thanks as always.
