A student received an 82% on an exam. If there were 50 questions on the exam, which ratio would show the number of questions answered correctly?​

imma say 41:50

41:50 is the ratio that would show the number of questions answered correctly to the total number of questions if the student received 82% in a 50-question exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, divide 82 by 100, since this is what you would have originally gotten with the ratio.

82 ÷ 100 = 0.82

2. Then multiply it by 50 (since this is how many questions were on the test)

0.82 × 50 = 41 < (the number of questions answered correctly)

3. Now that you have the two numbers you need, you can assemble the ratio.

41/50
