I think you should probably find your teacher (or email them) and tell them that you forgot to number the questions, it might not affect your mark but it is down to your teacher

Just got back my daughters paper for English lit and she forgot to write the question numbers for most of them. The exam gave her no marks and said questions not attempted!
