You can put this solution on YOUR website!
90/150=3/5=60/100=60%
The score for that test is 60%,
unless 50 of those 150 points were "bonus points"
To calculate the total current grade after that test,
I would need more information.
The current average for that students.depends on the point value of the previous grades.
The rules/formulas for how to calculate grades
should be established and communicated at the beginning of the course,
and could be complicated.
For example, 10% of the grade could come from homework,
20% could come from quizzes,
another 20% could come from tests,
and the midterm and final could each be worth 25%
of the total grade.
Yet, when not all the coursework is finished,
the grade is calculated as a weighted average of the completed items only.
