Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

The total Score is 85 + 92 + 79 + x = 4 * 87

The total Score needed is 4 * 87 = 348

So to get that score we need to add the other scores up

256 + x

which equals the total of the 4 tests.

256 + x = 348          

Subtract 256 from both sides.

256 - 256 + x = 348 - 256

x = 92 Pretty high, but doable.
