Average Problem

Expert replies
by svijay800 » Thu Dec 20, 2007 2:52 am
At a certain high school, the respective weights for the following subjects are Mathematics 3, English 3, History 2, Science 2 and Art 1. What is a student’s average whose marks were the following: Geometry 89, American Literature 92, American History 94, Biology 81, and Sculpture 85?

Choices:
85.7
87.8
88.9
89.4
90.2

How do I have to approach the above problem/explanation?

Thanks in advance,

S Vijay

I think this is an average problem
Each subject has a different weight i.e. math grade * 3 + eng * 3 + hisotry * 2 + sci * 2 + art = total of 11
Math Grade = 89 = 89 * 3
English Grade = 92 = 92 * 3
History Grade 94 = 94 * 2
Science Grade = 81 = 81 * 2
Art Grade = 85 = 85 *1
Total the sum / 11
I believe it is a total of 978 / 11 = 88.9
