Question

Your college professor tells you he will give a 30%-30%-40% split on grades between homework, quizzes, and test. However whichever category you have the highest average in will be the 40% category.

What will your final grade be if your homework average is 60, you quiz average is 70, and your test average is 95?

Answer 1

Your final grade will be 77%

Explanation:

40% will be from your test average which is 95

30% will be from your homework average which is 60

30% will be from your quiz average which is 70

Calculating based on these weights:

(40×95+30×60+30×70) / (40+30+30) = 7700 / 100 = 77.00%
