Answer: 46

Step-by-step explanation:

percentage scored = 92

number of correct question = x

total number of questions = 50

The formula for calculating the percentage scored

= number of correct question / total number of questions x 100

That is

92 = [tex]\frac{x}{50}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{100}{1}[/tex]

[tex]92 = \frac{100x}{50}[/tex]

cross multiplying :

[tex]100x = 92[/tex] x [tex]50[/tex]

[tex]100x = 4600[/tex]

dividing through by 100 , we have

[tex]x = 46[/tex]

Therefore, she got 46 questions right
