Answer:

he gets 110 points cos if he earned 99 points on his science project, and his grade was 90 then he would've needed 11 more points if he wanted to pass cos if he had gotten 100 points, then he would've received a 92% so in the end, the highest score would've been a 110,

I bet no mod, no matter how dumb it is, no mod, would delete this cos it's an actual answer, if they do delete this, then this website has serious issues, and it needs new mods

Answer:

110 = points possible

Explanation:

The points received equals the points possible times the percent

99 = points possible * 90%

Changing this to decimal form

99 = points possible * .90

Divide each side by .90

99/.90 = points possible *.90/.90

110 = points possible
