Fraction Calculation Logic Questions

@funeng - i am not clear on your problem…

I am making the assumption that the ABCDE values you refer to are the 5 variables you have created. please advise if this is correct. 

from your image - which i show below - to properly implement the logic I think you are trying to achieve, you should add 1 to abstract_r on this question. don’t add abstract_r to total until the very last question where you are looking to create the final total

if there are other questions that are going to add another value to abstract_r and  you continue to add abstract_r to total in each question , you are overstating the value. 

suggest you add points to your variables (they are subtotals) up to the last question and then you can add all the subtotals to total for the final score. 

If you are assigning different point values for each choice in a question, please confirm. 

if you could show a screen shot of your question, as the user would see it, that would help too.. 

thanks
