Explanation:

Step1: Convert percentage to decimal

To find 65% of 80, first convert 65% to a decimal. 65% is equivalent to $0.65$ (since $65\%=\frac{65}{100} = 0.65$).

Step2: Multiply by total number of problems

Now, multiply this decimal by the total number of problems (80) to find the number of correct answers. So we calculate $80\times0.65$.
$80\times0.65 = 52$

Answer:

52
