📐 How Weighted Grades Work

Weighted Average Formula

Weighted Grade = Sum of (Component % × Weight %) Step 1: Convert each score to percentage Score / Max × 100 = Component Percentage Step 2: Multiply by weight Component % × (Weight / 100) = Weighted Contribution Step 3: Sum all contributions Total Grade = Sum of all Weighted Contributions Example: Assignments: 85/100 × 30% = 25.5 pts Midterm: 72/100 × 30% = 21.6 pts Final: 90/100 × 40% = 36.0 pts Total: 83.1 / 100

Score Needed on Final Exam

Needed Score = (Target − Current × (1 − FinalWeight)) / FinalWeight Where all values are as decimals (0-1) Example: Current 78%, target 80%, final weight 30% Needed = (0.80 − 0.78 × 0.70) / 0.30 = (0.80 − 0.546) / 0.30 = 0.254 / 0.30 = 84.7% You need at least 84.7% on the final to get 80%.
