Question

The student earns the following grades for this class:Homework: 95Projects: 89Quizzes: 80Exams: 79Calculate his grade for the class, rounded to the nearest whole grade.

Answer 1

First, express the percentages in decimal form:

5 / 100 = 0.05

25/100 = 0.25

20/100= 0.2

50/100 = 0.5

Now, multiply each grade and add.

(0.05 x 95 ) + ( 0.25 x 89 ) + (0.20 x 80 ) + (0.5 x 79 ) =

4.75 + 22.25 + 16 + 39.5 = 82.5 = 83

Answer = 83
