If each question has the same "weight" (value), then each question would be worth 100% / 40 = 2.5%. However, it is also possible that some questions have more weight than others. In this case, 2.5% is simply the average value of each question.

Well, if there are 40 questions on the exam, and let's say the exam is worth 100 points in total, then each question would technically be worth 2.5 points. But hey, don't stress too much about the points, just focus on acing those questions!
Oh, dude, each question on a 40 question exam is worth 1/40th of the total points. So, if you get it right, you get a fraction of the total points, and if you get it wrong, well, you know the drill. It's like a tiny piece of the pie, but hey, every little bit counts, right?
If there are 40 questions on the exam and the total possible points is 100, then each question is worth 2.5 points. This is calculated by dividing the total points (100) by the number of questions (40). Therefore, each question is worth 2.5 points on a 40 question exam.
If you make the assumption - without any justification - that all questions are worth the same, then each one is worth 1/35 of the total for the exam.
There's no reason they all have to be worth the same credit. Butif they are, then the number is 2.5% for each correct answer.
Assuming each question has the same number of marks, 1 question is worth 1.6666...% 100 divided by 60 = 1.66666666... However it is much more likely, especially if the test is in preperation for exams, that each question will be worth a different amount depending on the hardness of the question and how much detail/work needs to be put in to get the right answer, 1.66666...% is more an average of how much each question is worth, than how much each question is actually worth.
Well, if there are 12 questions on the test and each question is worth the same amount, then each question is worth 1/12 of the total points. So, technically, each question is worth 1/12 of the total score. Math doesn't lie, honey!
