For this problem, we are given the grades and weights for two types of classes. We need to calculate the final grade based on this information.

We need to calculate a weighted average, which is:


\text{ Grade=}(75\cdot58.35+25\cdot92.33)/(100)=(6684.5)/(100)=66.85\text{ \%}

The grade will be 66.85 %.
