Answer:

78%

Explanation:

Ok to solve this we can write this as

80 =
(73+82+85+83+x)/(5)

We put the equation like this because were finding out how much he needs to get on his 5th test x in order to get a 80%

Your grade is the average of all of your scores hence the divided by 5

We next multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get

400 = 72+82+85+83+x

400= 322+ x

78 = x

He must get a 78% minimum on his next test to get 80%

Hope that helps!
