Math Problem Statement

a student has the following grade. 100 and an 80 on a class work which are worth 20% percent and a test which he got 73 on and is worth 25%

Solution

To calculate the student's overall grade, you need to multiply each grade by its corresponding weight and then add the results together. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Classwork:

    • Grade: 100
    • Weight: 20% (or 0.20)
    • Contribution to overall grade: 100×0.20=20100 \times 0.20 = 20
  2. Classwork:

    • Grade: 80
    • Weight: 20% (or 0.20)
    • Contribution to overall grade: 80×0.20=1680 \times 0.20 = 16
  3. Test:

    • Grade: 73
    • Weight: 25% (or 0.25)
    • Contribution to overall grade: 73×0.25=18.2573 \times 0.25 = 18.25

Now, add up the contributions from each component:

20+16+18.25=54.2520 + 16 + 18.25 = 54.25

So far, the student's overall grade is 54.25% based on the components provided.

Relative Questions:

  1. How would the overall grade change if the student scored higher on the test?
  2. What would the final grade be if there were additional components, such as homework or participation?
  3. How could the student improve their overall grade with remaining assignments?
  4. What would be the effect of a 5% bonus on the overall grade?
  5. How does the weight of different assessments impact the final grade calculation?

Tip:

Always double-check the weight percentages to ensure they add up correctly when calculating the final grade.
