How do you figure final grade if term grades are worth 88 percent of total grade and final is worth 12 percent?

This is the problem of finding a "weighted average", that is to say, some items have more "weight" than others.
To avoid confusions, I will convert the 88% to 0.88,and the 12% to 0.12. You can also convert everything to decimals.
For example, if you get 80% for your term grades, and 70% for your final exam, you multiply as follows:
(80% x 0.88) + (70% x 0.12) = 0.788 or 78.8%. Note that the term grades, having a larger "weight", affect the final grade much more than the exam; the final grade is much closer to the term grades than to the final exam grade. In this example, this works to your advantage, because the final exam has a lower grade.

How can I figure out my grade for my final?
If all your grades are weighted the same you add all of your grades together, then divide it by the number of grades you have for example: 97 82 35 67 86 43 (my grades not really) divided by 6 because that is how many grades i have = a 68% 68% is my final grade. If they have different weights then you need to multiply the grade by the % its worth.

In the final report card are parents supposed to look at final grade or 4th quarter grades?
Parents should typically focus on both the final grade and the 4th quarter grades on the report card. The final grade represents the student's overall performance throughout the year, while the 4th quarter grades can provide insights into how the student finished the academic term and if there were any specific areas of improvement or concern. Both are important for a comprehensive understanding of the student's academic progress.
