A student receives 90 for homework, 95 for the quizzes, 85 for the midterm and 84 for the final exam. What will be the student’s class grade?

Class grade: ?

Answer 1

86.55%

Explanation:

Basically what you would do is take each percentage and turn it into decimal percent. after that, you multiply it with the respective numbers, like:

90 × 0.20= 18

95 × 0.10= 9.5

85 × 0.25= 21.25

84 × 0.45= 37.8

Adding these numbers together, you could get 86.55, or 86.55%.
