  • Question
    How many wrong answers can I get on a 46 question test and still pass?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Let's assume you need around a 70% to pass. You would then need to know what 70% of 46 is. Calculate this by converting 70% to the following decimal: 0.7. Then multiply that by 46. The answer is 32.2, which we will round up to 33 to account for the decimal. That is how many questions you need to get right to pass. Subtract 33 from 46 to find how many you can get wrong and still pass. The answer is 13.

    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    We know that 6-2=4. The ratio that you need to use is "# of Correct Answers / # of Questions * 100. This means that our ratio will be 4/6, which can be simplified to 2/3. 2/3 is .67, which when multiplied by 100 is 67, meaning that your grade will probably be a 67%, or a D+.
