if my grade is a 87 and i get a 47.37% what is my grade
If you receive a grade of 47.37% on an assignment, you can calculate your new overall grade by taking the weighted average of both grades.
First, convert your percentage grade to a decimal by dividing by 100. In this case, 47.37% becomes 0.4737.
Next, calculate the weighted average of your current grade (87%) and the new grade (47.37%). Assume the new grade is worth a certain percentage of your overall grade, while the previous grade is worth the remainder (100% - the percentage of the new grade).
For example, if the new grade is worth 30% of your overall grade, you would calculate your new grade as follows:
(0.7 * 87) + (0.3 * 47.37) = new overall grade
(0.7 * 87) + (0.3 * 47.37) = 60.9 + 14.211 = 75.111
Therefore, your new overall grade would be approximately 75.11% after receiving a grade of 47.37% on an assignment.
