Each class had 17 students. On Tuesday 26 percent of the students were tested on the information and of the students tested 85 percent got an A. How many students got an A on the test?

There can be no answer.

4 students out of 17 is 24% and 5 students out of 17 is 29%. So 26% represents a number of students between 4 and 5. But you cannot have fractional students. Furthermore, whether it is 4 or 5, 85% is again a fractional number. Clearly, the numbers in the question are seriously flawed.
