Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows two number lines with four ticks marked on them at equal distances. The first number line, labeled points scored, has the first, second, and fourth ticks marked as 0, 5, and 75, respectively. The second number line, labeled correct answers, has the first two ticks marked as 0 and 1, respectively.
The double number line shows 5 points are scored for each correct answer. What is the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored?

The correct answer is 15.
To find the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored, we need to determine the value on the second number line when the value on the first number line is 75.
From the given information, we know that each correct answer is worth 5 points. Therefore, we can divide the value on the first number line (75) by the point value for each correct answer (5).
75 ÷ 5 = 15
Thus, when 75 points are scored, there are 15 correct answers. So the correct answer is 15.
To answer the question, we need to determine the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored.
From the information given in the image, we can see that for each correct answer, 5 points are scored.
To find the number of correct answers, we can divide the total points scored (75) by the number of points earned per correct answer (5).
Doing this calculation: 75 ÷ 5 = 15
Therefore, the number of correct answers when 75 points are scored is 15.
