She would need to make an 89 on her last test. I hope this helped ^^

What I did is I put a made a list in ascending order (Least to greatest). Next, I added a number starting from 80 and then counted up. I added every number together and divided it by 5 every time I changed the number. Finally I got to the number 89 and it totaled to be 85.
