Question 68764: A course consits of four 100 point exams. A student scores 60 points on the first exam. What average must be obtained on the next three exams to obtain an overall average of 75%? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x = average scored on next 3 exams.
So, if the student scores 80% or averages 80% on the last 3 tests, his
average for the 4 tests will be 75%
