To calculate how many points are necessary to obtain a 65% score on a test worth 155 points, you need to perform the following calculation:
Convert the percentage into decimal form by dividing 65 by 100, which gives you 0.65.
Multiply the total points possible (155) by 0.65.
Round the result to the nearest whole number.
The calculation would therefore be: 155 points × 0.65 = 100.75 points. When rounded to the nearest point, you would need 101 points to obtain a 65% score on this 155-point test.

To obtain a score of 65% on a 155-point test, a student needs to achieve approximately 101 points. This is calculated by converting the percentage to a decimal and multiplying by the total points. Finally, rounding the result gives the necessary score.
