Q: If a student scores 85% on lab work and 75% on lecture exams, what is their final grade percentage according to the formula $ (\text{Lab average} \times 0.40) + (\text{Lecture average} \times 0.60) $?

$ (85 \times 0.40) + (75 \times 0.60) = 34 + 45 = 79\% $

Question 7

If a student scores 85% on lab work and 75% on lecture exams, what is their final grade percentage according to the formula $ (	ext{Lab average} 	imes 0.40) + (	ext{Lecture average} 	imes 0.60) $?

Accepted Answer

$ (85 	imes 0.40) + (75 	imes 0.60) = 34 + 45 = 79\% $
