Suppose you took eight math tests this semester. If your average score on your first six tests was 84 and your average score on all eight tests was 86, then what was the average of your last two test scores? avamarie Apr 27, 2020

Answer: 92

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : Sum of first n numbers = Average x n

Given: Average score on first 6 tests= 84

A score on all 8 tests = 86

Then, Sum of first 6 numbers = 84 x 6 = 504

Sum of first 8 numbers = 86 x 8 = 688

Sum of two last numbers = (Sum of first 8 numbers) - (Sum of first 6 numbers)

= 688-504

=184

Average of last two numbers = (Sum of two last numbers )÷2

= 184÷2

= 92

Hence,  the average of your last two test scores = 92.
