Answer 4

Answer 6

Answer 7

I see. How many total points from all assignments and tests have there been since the semester started?

Answer 8

Ok um

Answer 9

There 812 possible points to get a hundred percent

Answer 10

Lukas also has a point. You'd need the total points and the weight of quizes in the class.

Answer 11

Right now i am 724

Answer 12

out of 812

Answer 13

So 724/812 possible points i just want enough points to get me atleast just 90%

Answer 14

Oh OK. You have 724/812, now you must add 5 to both the numerator and denominator.

Answer 15

The current percentage i am in is 89.16

Answer 16

Which is 729/817 = 89.23% assuming you got a 100% on your 5-point test

Answer 17

Yeah if i got all five points witch is 5/5 will i get a hundred

Answer 18

Yeah, you'll get a 100% on your quiz, and a new grade of 89.23% in the class. In all honesty, 5 points does not make a huge mark on your class grade.

Answer 19

I think i didnt explain

Answer 20

you know how you added five points to 812 to make it 817

Answer 21

well how can i explain this the 812 wont change because its not a new test i have to take its an old one that i have t do so basicaly if i do the quiz will my grade go up

Answer 22

I get what you saying but should it suppose to be like this 724/812

Answer 23

What was the old grade of your test?

Answer 24

And overall up my grade little bit more

Answer 25

Ok from all my assignments and tests i finished them ok but this quiz witch is 5/5 i havent tooken it was a month ago and yes my teacher said i can still take it so yeah if that make sense

Answer 26

So if I understand correctly, I think your new grade would be 729/812 = 89.77% which would be real close to the grade you want.

Answer 27

Yeah

Answer 28

I believe you did the caculation right XD

Answer 29
