AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To find the percentage of questions Arti answered correctly, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the total number of questions and the number of correct answers. - Total number of questions = 30 - Number of questions answered correctly = 24 ### Step 2: Use the formula for percentage. The formula to calculate the percentage of correct answers is: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of correct answers}}{\text{Total number of questions}} \right) \times 100 \] ### Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula. Substituting the known values into the formula gives: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{24}{30} \right) \times 100 \] ### Step 4: Simplify the fraction. To simplify \(\frac{24}{30}\): - Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 6: \[ \frac{24 \div 6}{30 \div 6} = \frac{4}{5} \] ### Step 5: Convert the fraction to a percentage. Now, calculate: \[ \frac{4}{5} \times 100 = 80 \] ### Final Answer: The percentage of questions Arti answered correctly is **80%**. ---
