My grade is at 76% I got a 65% on my exam that was worth 20% of my grade. What’s my grade now ?
To calculate your grade after taking the exam, you need to know the weightage of the remaining components in your final grade. Assuming the exam was the only component:
Grade before the exam: 76%
Weightage of the exam: 20%
Grade on the exam: 65%
To find the new grade, you can use the weighted average formula:
New Grade = (Grade before the exam * (100% - Weightage of the exam) + Grade on the exam * Weightage of the exam ) / 100%
New Grade = (76% * 80% + 65% * 20% ) / 100%
New Grade = (60.8% + 13% ) / 100%
New Grade = 73.8% / 100% = 0.738
Therefore, your new grade after the exam is 73.8%.
