Question

Professor Cramer determines a final grade based on attendance, two papers, three major tests, and a final exam. Attendance is worth 5%, each paper is worth 8%, each test is worth 15%, and the final exam is worth 34%. A student had the following grades: 88 for attendance, 73 on the first paper, 77 on the second paper, 81 on test 1, 92 on test 2, 83 on test 3, and 73 on the final exam. What is the student's final average in the course?

Answer 1

Answer:

73.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Attribute                  percentage worth                  

----------------------------------------------------------

Attendance                     5%

Each paper                      8%

Each test                         15%

The final exam                34%

also,

Grades of student

88 for attendance

73 on the first paper

77 on the second paper

81 on test 1

92 on test 2

83 on test 3

73 on the final exam

Now,

Final average score = ∑ ( Percentage worth × Grades )

or

= 88 × 0.05 + 73 × 0.08 + 81 × 0.15 + 92 × 0.15 + 83 × 0.15 + 73 × 0.34

= 4.4 + 5.84 + 12.15 + 13.8 + 12.45 + 24.82

= 73.46
