Let us understand with the help of an example:
Let us suppose, the number of right answers are 180 and the number of wrong answers are 20 then the score will be calculated as
S = 3R – 1W {Formula}
S = 3 (180) – 1 (20) {Put the values of R and W}
S = 540 – 20 {Multiply 3 & 180 and 1 & 20}
S = 520
So, the score will be 520 marks.
