Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of correct questions Sally got = 28 questions

Percentage of correct questions answered= 70% on the exam,

Total number of questions in the exam = Unknown

Let the total questions in the exam be represented as y.

Since Sally got 70% correctly, this will be:

70% of y = 28

70/100 × y = 28

0.7 × y = 28

0.7y = 28

Divide both side by 0.7

0.7y/0.7 = 28/0.7

y = 40

There are 40 questions in the exam.
