if you have an average of 87% on 3 tests what score will you need to get on your last test to earn a 90% average
--------------------
An average of 87 on 3 tests means you have 3*87 = 261 points
---
An average of 90 on 4 tests means you need 4*90 = 360 points
-------
You need a 99 on the last test to average 90 on the 4 tests.
