Answer:

91 average for his next exams

Explanation:

he has an 85 right now. if he gets a 91 then his overall average will be an 88 like he wanted.

(this is how u find average) ( add them together then divide it by how many numbers there are)

85+91=176

176/2= 88

therefore the average on his next 2 exams must be

91

hope this helps! <3
