The formula for averaging things is (a+b+c+d)/4 (because there are 4 items being added.)


So we want the average to be 80, so we set things equal to 80.


Let the score for the unknown test score be x.


80 = (84+78+82+79+x)/5

400 = 84+78+82+79+x

x = 77


The lowest possible score Alexandria can get is 77 points.
