I'm on 74% in a class that I've been finding hard, the final is tomorrow and it's worth 25% of the final grade. Pass is 60% and above - what's the minimum grade I need on the final to get 60% overall?

Per my computation :
your actual grade is 74% = 3/4 of the final pass
final grade : 25% = 1/4 of the pass
60% is the pass : you have to get more than 60%
let's say "x" is your final grade
60% =< 74% * 3/4 + x * 1/4
60% =< 55.5% + x * 1/4
(60%-55.5%) =< x/4
0.5% =< x/4
so you have to get minimum : 0.5*4 = 2% =<x
TO PASS you have to get 2% for your final grade
