This is what I tried:
(.87)
---- = .0348 so, i did not know if I did this right, I did not think so.
(25) Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'm assuming you want to find your final overall grade (with lecture + lab grades combined in a way).
(weight of lab)*(lab grade) + (weight of lecture)*(lecture grade) = final grade
(0.25)*(0.871) + (0.75)*(0.836) = final grade
0.84475 = final grade
So the final grade is roughly 84.475% (around B- or B, but it will depend on the teacher).
This is not taking into consideration any extra credit or things like the professor dropping your lowest quiz score. This is why it's best to ask the teacher directly as s/he is the only person who knows that grading system perfectly. However, 84.475% is a good estimate.
