(HW Earned) / (HW Possible)  x  10 = (HW Total)

(Quiz Earned) / (Quiz Possible)  x  20 = (Quiz Total)

(Midterm Earned) / (Midterm Possible)  x  30 = (Midterm Total)

(Practical Earned) / (Practical Possible) x 10 = (Practical Total)

(HW Total) + (Quiz Total) + (Midterm Total) + (Practical Total) = (Total to Date)

(((Desired %) - (Total to Date) ) / 30) x 100 = (% Needed on the Final)

ie.

82 / 90 x 10 = 9.11
76.5 / 100 x 20 = 15.3
85 / 100 x 30 = 25.5
40 / 100 x 10 = 4.0

9.11 + 15.3 + 25.5 + 4 = 53.91

((80 - 53.91) / 30) x 100 = 86.97

So, 86.97% on the written final will result is a course grade of a B-.
