Question 701796: There is 53questions on a test,and you have to score a 90%. How many questions am I allowed to miss?

90% of 53 = 0.90*53 = 47.7 which rounds up to 48

So you must get 48 questions correct.

This means that you are allowed to miss up to 53 - 48 = 5 questions to get a 90% (or better)
