MyLab Math (MLM) Grade Example
MLM grade calculation is based on the Weighted Average method.
Each section has equal weights.
This is how your MLM grades are calculated.
(1.) The MyLab Math (MLM) has 31 topics.
(2.) 31 topics count for 100% on MLM
This implies that each section count for
$
\dfrac{100}{31} = 3.225806452\% \\[5ex]
$
This is what should be entered in the Weight section of the calculator.
(3.) Let us do an example.
Assume Student A made a:
98% on Properties of Exponents: Part 1
90% on Properties of Exponents: Part 2
86% on Properties of Exponents: Part 3
Student A is aware that 100% can be made on all three sections by doing similar questions of the questions
got incorrectly.
However, Student A is content with the grades made so far and wants to find the current grade.
What is the current grade for Student A?
| MLM Topic | Weight (%) | Your Score (%) | Weighted Score (Weight * Your Score) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Properties of Exponents: Part 1 | 3.225806452 | 98 | 316.1290323 |
| Properties of Exponents: Part 2 | 3.225806452 | 90 | 290.3225806 |
| Properties of Exponents: Part 3 | 3.225806452 | 86 | 277.4193548 |
| $\Sigma Weights = 9.677419355$ | $\Sigma Weighted\;\;Scores = 883.8709677$ | ||
| $ Current\;\;Grade = \dfrac{\Sigma Weighted\;\;Scores}{\Sigma Weights} = \dfrac{883.8709677}{9.677419355} = 91.33333333 \approx 91\% $ | |||
Student A's current MLM grade based on these three sections is 91%.
This is the grade that the student will see in the MLM gradebook.
