The reason you multiply by 5 is that the last test is worth double the first three, so it is the same as having 5 tests. You know the total points of the first three tests by simply adding them. Then subtract from 450 to know the score needed on the last one.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "John \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " |
