Answer:

Explanation:

So since each question is 5% (100/20=5)

we can do ((13*5)/2) because of half credit we divide by two

now we get 32.5% back

32.5%+35%=67.5%

unless of course of extra points on other assignments, the highest grade you can get in that class (if every other thing is a 100%) is an 87 if im not mistaken.
