Question 1082798: By working hard in math class, getting 3's on his homework and spending time on accelerated math to earn extra credit, Mario's class percentage was 106%. If the total points possible in the class was 75 points, how many points extra did Mario earn?

assuming that 100% = 75, then milo earned 106% of 75 = 1.06 * 75 = 79.5.

he earned 4.5 extra points above and beyond the maximum of 75 allowed.

that's what i think they're looking for.
