(79+88+64+78+newtest)/5 = 80

solve for "newtest"
Answered by Emily
Let's say the score of the 5th test her is x. To get an average of something, you add everything up and divide by the number of numbers (in this case, tests), right? So, this is how you would set this one up:

79+88+64+78+x
------------- = 80
5

Can you solve the rest?
Answered by Ms. Sue
The student needs a total of 400 points on 5 tests to get an average of 80.

He has a total of 309 on the first four tests. What score does he need on the fifth test to bring his total up to 400?
