It's complicated.<br />
<br />
I think if we end the war on drugs most of it just goes away . . .<br />
<br />
I keep saying we must either enforce the law, or commit acts of civil disobedience to change the law, and now I think I'll add a third proposal and that is to examine those in academia whose research into behavior has profited from this <i>civil conflict.</i><br />
<br />
Um, if I PULL MY EAR REALLY HARD, will that make any sense for ya? Maybe not. And if not then I really don't know how to provide clarity for ya, or if…

I never could understand why the point system had to be stupid erratic points, like 33. It is a nice number, and I won't say anything bad about it, but 33 for the total points on an assignment?<br />
<br />
You are right - sometimes I don't think they are being very nice. Actually, I believe if someone else sets up the point system, they should also set up the grading system.<br />
<br />
I always went on the 100 point system. Made it easier for me. And the students.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your input Sasha.

OK, ZenDog, if you want to snap at someone or something, you can snap at me because I will know it is not aimed at me. I really do have thick skin.<br />
<br />
I don't know who is doing skits in the streets where you live and what they are about.<br />
<br />
Friends?<br />
<br />
I don't know why you can't use the phone.<br />
<br />
I don't know how much clearer I could have been other than the math problem I asked about.

WS,<br />
<br />
Is right. 1000 divided by 50 equals 20 which means the scores will need<br />
to be divided by 20 to give you an equivalent grade based on the total of<br />
50 being equal to 100% of 1,000.<br />
<br />
In college we run across this alot. Grades of 25, 30 or 40 equalling<br />
100% but are added in the end to give a direct total in relationship to 1,000<br />
easily divisible by 10. I do not know why the school is using the total of 50<br />
when it would be so much easier for the student and teacher alike to use the<br />
100. Unless…

Maybe. It's just that everyone is telling so many lies today I get really, really irritated. It isn't your fault, and I know that.<br />
<br />
I don't know why people are so afraid to just come out and say what they really mean. It's gotten so bad they won't even use the telephone any more, no no.<br />
<br />
Instead they create a skit on the street, and then they pray to god you get it. I don't know why really. It's all stupid. And like I said, it's kinda irritating too.<br />

Adult education teacher. Don't need a license to teach. I have an MBA. I am a good teacher. Just not good in math. So suck it up and come to one of my classes. You might learn something on how to be nice to other people.

No, SeaRain you are essentially dividing by 25 in your example (multiplying by 2/50) You need to simply divide the total points by 20<br />
928.01/20 = 46.4

Thanks.<br />
<br />
What I do is add everything up, get a total, divide by 50 and multiply by 2.<br />
<br />
So: 928.01 / 50 * 2 = 37.12 is wrong.<br />
<br />
I should be doing .928 * 50 = 46<br />
<br />
Is that correct?
