Answer:

The answer is A) 98.

Step-by-step explanation:

   Rex has to score 98 marks in his fourth exam to obtain a grade A in the course.

Calculations for the score in the fourth exam:

Total marks in four exams = 100 + 100 + 100 + 100 = 400

Marks required for an A (90%) in four exams = 90% of 400

                                                                          = [tex]\frac{90}{100}\times 400[/tex]

                                                                          = 360

Rex scores in Ist, 2nd and 3rd exam = 84, 86 and 92

So the score to be obtained in 4th exam for an A = 360 - (84 + 86 + 92)

                                                                                   = 98

       Therefore, Rex has to score 98 marks in 4th exam to get a grade A.
