Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The student earned 80% on a math test

The student answered 20 questions

Suppose x is the total no of questions

So, we can write

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{x}\times 100=80\%\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{x}=0.8\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{0.8}=x\\\\\Rightarrow x=25[/tex]

So, there are 25 questions in total
