Algebra.Com's Answer #316403 by richard1234(7193) You can put this solution on YOUR website! If 27 students averaged 70, then the total score is 27*70 = 1890. If 15 of them score above 90, this total score must be at least 1350. It is possible for the other 12 to score below 540, so 15 of them scoring above 90 is a possibility. \n" ); document.write( " |
