Re: Averaging Grades
[ QUOTE ]
My fiancee is a T.A. in a music class and she has to figure out grades for the kids in the class. There are five things the kids are graded on and they all are weighted differently:
Tests: 45%
Quizzes: 20%
Participation/Attendance: 15%
Online Assignments: 10%
Concert Reports: 10%
Anyone know how to explain how to figure out how to give the grades?
Thanks.

Take the grade vector and the weight vector in five dimensional space and multiply their lengths and the cosine of the angle between them.
