Aaisha wanted to know how many marks and percentage she has got overall in a Chemistry module. She needs 61% to pass. She’s already got 68% from her coursework which was worth 40%. She has just done her final exam which is worth 60%. The exam was out of 110 marks. How many marks and what percentage does she need to get 61% overall in the chemistry module?
= 68% of 40% of total marks for module
= 68/100 x 40% of total marks for module
= 27.2% of total marks for module
In order to pass she needs 61% for total marks.
61% - 27.2% = 33.8%
She needs 33.8% more to pass.
This 33.8% of total module marks is scored from the finals, which is 60% of total.
So 33.8% of total ÷ 60% of total
= 33.8 ÷ 60
= 169/300
Since the finals are based upon 110 marks, she need to score 169/300 of that.
169/300 x 110
= 61 29/30 marks
She needs to score 61 29/30 marks to get 61% overall to pass.
The required percentage for the test
= 169/300 x 100%
= 56 ⅓ %
