\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "I assume science grade is worth 85% of final grade
\n" ); document.write( "let x=final exam score needed to boost mark 5% to 85%
\n" ); document.write( "85%80+15%x=85\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "68+.15x=85
\n" ); document.write( ".15x=17
\n" ); document.write( "x=113 (not possible to boost mark to 85%, assume maximum score of 100)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
