if the test is worth 20% then the present average is worth 80%
\n" ); document.write( ".80*72+.2x>=80
\n" ); document.write( "57.6 +.2 x>=80
\n" ); document.write( "your 72 average is only worth 57.6 you need to get 20% of the test that is worth 22.4
\n" ); document.write( "You will need to get 112 on the test
\n" ); document.write( "to get 75 you will need 87
\n" ); document.write( "with a grade of 100 on the test you would get a total 77.6
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
