Write a function that takes three arguments to represent the number of threshold, typical and excellent SOBs obtained by a student for each category, i.e. the first argument will represent the number of threshold SOBs that has been observed for given a student, the second argument will represent the number of typical SOBs that has been observed, and the third argument will represent the number of excellent SOBs that has been observed. There are overall 35 Threshold, 51 Typical and 31 Excellent SOBs (a total of 117). If the student has passed, i.e. all 35 threshold SOBs are observed, the function returns the number of SOBs completed as a percentage. E.g. if the function is called computeFinal and it is called with the following values/inputs (computeFinal 35 11 6), whereby the first argument represents threshold SOBs, the second typical and the third excellent, then the function returns 44.44 (representing the percentage of SOBs completed). If the student has not got all 35 threshold SOBs, regardless of how many typical or excellent SOBs have been observed, then the student has failed and the function just returns a string “You have failed to complete all your threshold SOBs”.

Question

Write a function that takes three arguments to represent the number of threshold, typical and
excellent SOBs obtained by a student for each category, i.e. the first argument will represent the
number of threshold SOBs that has been observed for given a student, the second argument will
represent the number of typical SOBs that has been observed, and the third argument will represent
the number of excellent SOBs that has been observed. There are overall 35 Threshold, 51 Typical
and 31 Excellent SOBs (a total of 117).
If the student has passed, i.e. all 35 threshold SOBs are observed, the function returns the number of
SOBs completed as a percentage. E.g. if the function is called computeFinal and it is called with the
following values/inputs (computeFinal 35 11 6), whereby the first argument represents threshold
SOBs, the second typical and the third excellent, then the function returns 44.44 (representing the
percentage of SOBs completed).
If the student has not got all 35 threshold SOBs, regardless of how many typical or excellent SOBs
have been observed, then the student has failed and the function just returns a string “You have
failed to complete all your threshold SOBs”.
