----------
G = the next grade
(91 + 86 + 85 + G)/4 = 90
Solve for G

The first grade, 91, is +1 compared to the desired average.
The second grade, 86, is -4 compared to the desired average.
The third grade, 85, is -5 compared to the desired average.
All together, the three grades are +1-4-5 = -8 compared to the desired average.
That means the next score has to be +8 compared to the desired average.
ANSWER: 90+8 = 98
