You can put this solution on YOUR website!
an average of 88 for 6 quizzes means a total of 528 points (6 times 88)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the current point total is 430 (5 times 86)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so the needed score on the 6th quiz (for an 88 average) is 98 (528 minus 430)
\n" ); document.write( "
