Let's call the unknown amount, x. So the sum of the 5 test scores, divided by 5, should give us our average value of 93, yes?\[\large\rm \frac{59+95+87+92+x}{5}=93\]Confusing? What do you think? :)

OpenStudy (lindseyhope123):

oh ok yes it does! thank you!!!

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Do you understand how to solve for x from that point?

OpenStudy (lindseyhope123):

yes!

It's going to actually be more than 100 which is strange +_+ lol
