Question
A multiple-choice test contains 8 questions. There are four possible answers for each question. In how many ways can a student answer the questions on the test if the student answers every question? Select one:a.32b.84c.48d.None of the otherse.1
Solution
The number of ways a student can answer the questions on the test is determined by the number of choices for each question and the number of questions.
Since there are 4 possible answers for each question and 8 questions, the total number of ways to answer the test is 4^8.
4^8 = 65,536
So, the correct answer is: d. None of the others.
