Problem of the Week-Decathlon's on

Hi guys this is the Problem of the Week for you to solve.
Solution
Current Points Earned
First 5 Events: 6.8 average
6.8 x 5= 34
Next 3 Events: 7.2 Average
7.2 x 3= 21.6 
Total points Earned through 8 events= 21.6+34=55.6

Willy has earned 55.6 points in 8 events

Points left to Earn
75-55.6= 19.4
Willy has to earn 19.4 points through the last two events in order to have 75 points. 
19.4/2=9.7

In order to have 75 points he must average 9.7 points, a near perfect, over the final 2 events.
