Let Charlie scores N in the fourth test to get an average of 93 marks.
Hence, (88 + 95 + 89 + N)/4 = 93
=> 272 + N = 4 x 93 = 372
=> N = 372 - 272 = 100
Hence, Charlie must score 100 in the fourth test to get an average of 93 marks in all four tests.

charlie's first 3 scores = 88,89,95
Total of these scores = 272
..
He needs an average of 93 in 4 tests
so total of 4 tests will be 93 *4=372
..
The difference of the totals will give the score for the 4th. test to achieve 93 average
372-272=100
