@dmezzullo Is doing homework. He wants to predict his GPA in Math. He figures that without doing any homework he can get a 2.0. For every homework question that he answers completely on his own without anyone's help his GPA will increase by .01. He doesn't want to solve more questions than necessary to obtain a 4.0. How many many math problems should he solve to obtain exactly a 4.0?
