If I have a 95 average in a class but get a 0 on the test what is my new average?
:
It depends on what part of your final grade is based on the test in relation to your prior average
:
For instance if the the test is half, your final average = 95/2 = 47.5
If the test is 20% or 1/5 of your final grade: 4(95)/5 = 76%
