I have a 73% grade in Biology?

Question

which is a "C" letter grade. The final is coming up and it is worth 15% of my overall/final grade for the class. Can anyone figure out how good i would have to do on the final to get a "B-" in the class (an 80%)? Or is it even possible? thanks

Answer 1

I think you would need a 119% to bring it up to an 80, so sorry to say, its impossible unless your teacher gives mucho extra credit. Check my math though. I could be wrong.

73(.85)+.15x=80

.15x=17.95

x=119 (roughly)
