How This Is Calculated
Example: On a 10-question test, you answer 8 correctly (2 wrong):
Score = (8 / 10) × 100 = 0.80 × 100 = 80% (B grade)
The letter grade cutoffs follow the standard US grading scale: A (90–100%), B (80–89%), C (70–79%), D (60–69%), F (below 60%). Your school or instructor may use different thresholds, so check your course syllabus for the exact scale.
