My exam is worth 60% how much do I need to pass?

I have a maths test coming up and I find it really hard.

For my first test I got 75% the exam is 40% of my final mark.

How mush do I need on my next exam to pass the course?

    75*0.4=30, so right now you've got 30/100 on your final mark.

    Depends on what is "passing".

    Without curves:

    If 60/100 is passing, then you need 30/100 more. 30/0.6=50, so you need a 50% on your exam.

    If 70/100 is passing, then you need 40/100 more. 40/0.6=66.7, so you need a 66.7% on your exam.

    So on.

    This is classic! Asking a math question on Yahoo.... about how badly you can do on your math test and still pass... HAHA!

    So anyway - the first answer was right, as long as nothing else is figured into the final grade.

    And GOOD LUCK!
