In your biology class, your final grade is based on several things: a lab score, scores on two major tests, and your score on the final exam. There are 100 points available for each score. However, the lab score is worth 23% of your total grade, each major test is worth 25%, and the final exam is worth 27%. Compute the weighted average for the following scores: 74 on the lab, 69on the first major test, 62 on the second major test, and 85 on the final exam. (Enter your answer to one decimal place.)

Answer :

Answer:

72.7 is the weighted average score

Step-by-step explanation:

The weighted average score

= score of lab * % share of total grade + score of first major test  * % share of total grade + score of second major test  * % share of total grade + Score of the final exam  * % share of total grade

Substituting the given values, we get -

0.23 * 74 + 0.25 * 69 + 0.25 * 62 + 0.27 * 85

= 72.7
