If you miss 5 out of 15, you only got 10/15/
10 divided by 15 is .6667.
That is equal to an F
80

The person who gave the above answer is certainly not getting 80%!
The maximum score is 92% but the actual score depends on how many answers were not missed but wrong.
Assuming you got every other questions right, 14 out of 25 is just over half (actually 56%). In many systems, this would be enough for a C-grade of some kind; in others, it may not be a passing grade, and therefore a D, E or F.

92% or A-
uh~
The 2 questions that were wrong equals 25% of the score because each question is 12.5%. So if 2 questions out of 8 were wrong the score would come out to 75%. The equation to get the answer is (100 / 8 = 12.5) So (12.5 x 2 = 25) Now that you know that the questions that were answered wrong equals 25% just do (100% - 25% = 75%) So then 75% is your answer.
You get a 90 as a score when you miss 2 out of 20 questions because each question is worth 5 points.
4 of 6
It means you missed 5 questions. You have to be in the top 2%.
If you have 25 questions than you take 25x4 so the questions would be worth 4 points. So if you miss 2 than your percentage is 92%
90% of 27 = 27*90/100 = 24.3 So you MUST answer 25 questions - ie all but 2 - AND get them all correct!
Think about it this way: If you have 50 questions, each one would be worth 2 points in order to make a grade of 100. That means you can miss 5 questions before you get down to 90 (5 x 2 = 10).
A (96%)
3 25 will go into 100 4 times evenly. So, each question is worth 4 points each. If you make an 88, you missed 12 points. Since 3 x 4 = 12, you would have to miss 3 questions to make an 88.
You can only miss 16 points on a 100 point test in order to get an 84%. If the questions are worth 2 points EACH, you can miss 8. If the questions are worth 4 points each, you can only miss 4 questions.
75% or a "C".
100%-80%=20%10*.2=2Therefore you missed 2 questions.
