Say that I saw my mark in gym. I am at 83% right now. In the following last 2 days before the term ends, I get 3/5 and 5/5. What percent (grade) am I at right now?
That depends upon how many marks makes up your 83%. If have 40 marks, two marks won't make much difference. If you have 10 marks, two marks will make a bigger difference in your total grade average.
so will i still be at 83% or will it be possible that i get 86%?
We can't tell without more information.
A semester grade is an average of all the grades you've earned in that class.
(83 + 3/5 + 5/5)/3
(83 + 60 + 100) = 243/3 = 81
81%
Like Ms. Sue said.
I just did this based on info you provided.
oh and i thought i was going to get an A in gym? :(
To calculate your final percent or grade, we need to consider the weights of each mark. However, since you didn't provide any information about the weights, we will assume that each mark carries equal weight.
To calculate your final percent, we'll add up all the marks and calculate the average.
First, convert the marks into decimals:
3/5 = 0.6
5/5 = 1.0
Now, sum up all the marks:
83% + 0.6 + 1.0 = 84.6
Therefore, your percentage or grade after receiving 3/5 and 5/5 on the final two days would be 84.6%. Please note that if the marks had different weights, the calculation would differ.
