So far, you have 68 for 80% of your grade. That's . 4*68=272
The other of your grade is the unknown.
To get a 55 in the course, you would need 55*5 or 275 points.
You need 3% on the final test to pass.
3% of 90 = 2.7, rounded up to 3 questions correct in order to pass.
.
I think you have it covered ;-)
