As this involves DIRECT VARIATION, you can set up the problem as a proportion.\r\n" );
document.write( "With S being his score when he answers 25 questions correctly, we get: \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "OR\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "With a score of 87 and having gotten 29 correct, it follows that each question is worth , or 3 points.\r\n" );
document.write( "As each question is worth 3 points, his score, if 25 are correct will be:

\n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
