if I have a 67% in a class, what do I need on my final to stay above a 60%
=================
If the 67% covers half the points for the class
and the final covers half the points,
you have 0.67*50 = 33.5 points
---
You need 16.5 points from the Final.
---
Let "x" be the percent score you need on the Final::
50x = 16.5
x = 16.5/50 = 33%
