If my current grade is a 89 and I don’t take the final which is 10% of my grade how low would my grade drop

Answer 1

Anna,

We can write the following as follows given that the current grade 89 is 90% and the finals is worth 10%

current grade + finals = final grade

89 * 0.9 + 0 * 0.1 = final grade

80.1 + 0 = final grade

Answer: final grade = 80.1 - so the grade would drop 8.9 percentage points.

I hope this helps.

Feel free to reach out to me if there is still any misunderstanding.

Thanks,
