Question

A student in algebra course has test scores of 80, 85, 72, and 85. What score on the

next test will raise the student's average to 84?

Answer 1

98

Explanation:

First, you need to find the current average: 80+85+72+85/ 4= 322/4= 80.5

Now you need to find how many points you need to have the average of 84.

84x 5= 420

420- 322= 98
