How do you work out a perecentage of something?
So I have my results marks for the tests which are broken down in to percentages since my subject is continuously assessed.
Test 1 is worth 10% I got 83%
Test 2 is worth 10% I got 53%
Test 3 is worth 10% I got 57%
Test 4 is worth 10% I got 80%
Test 5 is worth 20% I got 45%
Test 6 is worth 10% I got 59%
I have another test which is worth 30% next week, I just want to know how much is my current percentage grade and how much would I need to get 80% overall or better from the last test.Last edited by MUN123; 11-05-2012 at 18:39. -

just out of curiosity, is this for a psychology degree? -
Re: How do you work out a perecentage of something?Hi, I need 40% to pass, does that mean I passed already?(Original post by *Nasir*)
so far: 42.2%
if you got 100% on the last test that is worth 30% then
42.2+30=72.2% is the highest you can get -
Re: How do you work out a perecentage of something?Cheers for letting me know, tbh I think that I'll get 50% next test so what is the overall grade for that?(Original post by Ilyas)
42.2 + 30 = 72.2
you need 93% in your next test to scrape 70% overall. 80% is out of the question. -
Re: How do you work out a perecentage of something?You have already passed because so far you have 42.2%.(Original post by MUN123)
...
If you get 50% on the last test then it would be 42.2+15=57.2% overall -

Re: How do you work out a perecentage of something?I'm curious. You've basically been asked twice what subject or degree this is for and you seem to have avoided the answer. I have no idea why.(Original post by MUN123)
No they aren't -
