I mean a test, NOT a final exam.

I got a 99 on my first test; a second test is coming up and I just don't understand the material. We have 4 tests throughout the semester, and each is worth 100 points, so our final grade is only based on test scores.

What will I need on the second test to keep an A in the class??!
 
Since the each test in the class is worth 100 points, after you take the second test your total points so far in the class would be out of 200.

In order to have an "A" in the class after the second test, you'd need to have at least 180 points (200 x 90%).

Since you got a 99 on the 1st test, we'd subtract 180-99. That leaves you with 81 points. You'd need to get 81 points (or 81%) on your next test to keep an A in the class.
