    Step-by-step explanation:

    The candidates attempted 12 Questions and Secured Full marks in all 12 questions to get a score of 60%.

    Since all questions carries equal marks:

    Therefore, 60% of the total number of question=12

    Let the total number of questions = x

    It means therefore that:

    60% of x = 12

    60/100 X x = 12

    0.6 X x = 12

    x = 12/0.6 = 20

    There are a total of 20 questions in the test.
