please help i’m not sure how to do math like this

Answer 1

9.2 %

Explanation:

Given: 0 on finals, overall is 90.8, then 0.01%

To find: How much of Kyle’s grade dropped

Solve: First, calculate the percentage you received on the test by dividing your mark by the total marks.

Kyle scored 0 out of 100, then 0/100 = 0 percent.

Secondly, multiply your percentage score on the test by the percentage it is worth of the final grade.

0 × 90.8 = 9.2 %

9.2 % of the final grade
