Step-by-step working
  1. Needed for the term = ⌈75% × 120⌉ = 90
  2. Still needed = 90 − 50 = 40
  3. Remaining classes = 120 − 70 = 50

How to use the Required Attendance Calculator

  1. Enter the total number of classes scheduled for the term.
  2. Enter how many have been held and how many you attended.
  3. Set the required percentage and press Calculate.

Formula

Classes needed = ⌈p × total⌉ − attended so far; compare with remaining = total − held.

Examples

  • 120 classes in the term, 50 of 70 attended, 75% required: 90 needed in total, so attend 40 of the remaining 50.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the attendance calculator?

The Student Attendance Calculator works with classes held so far. This one plans against the full term, so the answer accounts for how many classes are left.
