Thanks for your help. I'm not too sure if this is the correct way to answer this question, but let me know!
A student is having issues with an online computing grading system.
The system is displaying his term grade, but not his actual test result.
The term grade was at 0.00% yesterday, until today when it was 12% - the 12% is from the test which he sat recently, and the ONLY test he sat this term.
If the test he sat recently was weighted at 20% of term grade, and the mark displayed was 12% (due to the mark being 20%), what is his final mark for the first test? REMEMBER - he has not sat any other tests yet, but the mark displayed is worth 20%
From my understanding it's simply just 12*5 = 60% ?
Thanks!
Let's approach it in a different way-
He got $12$ marks out of $100$.
That $100$ was $20\%$ of $500$
So, he got $12*5=60$ marks out of $500$!!
Since he attempted only the $100$ mark test, He got $60$ marks out of $100$!!
