Part 1: She got 16 questions correct, which was {{{4/5}}} of the number of part 1 questions.

Let {{{x}}} = total number of questions in part 1

{{{(4/5 )x=16}}}
{{{x=16/(4/5 )}}}
{{{x=(16*5)/4}}}
{{{x=4*5}}}
{{{x=20}}}

• Part 2: She got 16 questions correct, which was {{{2/3}}} of the number of part

Let {{{y}}} = number of questions in part 2

{{{(2/3 )y=16}}}
{{{y=16/(2/3 )}}}
{{{y=(16*3)/2}}}
{{{y=8*3}}}
{{{y=24}}}

all together: {{{ 20+24=44}}}

answer: C. {{{44}}}
