Formula used

Grade percentage = (points earned ÷ points possible) × 100. Example band = highest entered threshold at or below the percentage.

This is the method behind the answer, so the result can be checked rather than simply trusted.

Assumptions used

What this answer assumes

Letter bands shown here are examples only. Use your course scale for official decisions.

Points possible must be greater than zero.
The percentage uses raw points earned divided by raw points possible.
Example A/B/C/D thresholds are not official and should be changed to match the class scale.
Scores above 100% are possible when bonus or extra-credit points are included.
Weighted categories, curves, dropped assignments, late penalties and gradebook rounding are not included.

Master’s Tip

How to use the result well

Master’s Tip: keep the raw fraction beside the percentage. If a gradebook later applies weighting, drops, curves or late penalties, the raw points explain where the first number came from.

84%42 points ÷ 50 possible × 100 = 84%. Example band: B; official scales can differ.

Inputs

Points earned: 42 points
Points possible: 50 points
Example A threshold: 90 percent
Example B threshold: 80 percent
Example C threshold: 70 percent
Example D threshold: 60 percent

Method

Grade percentage = (points earned ÷ points possible) × 100. Example band = highest entered threshold at or below the percentage.

A student earns 42 points out of 50. The calculation is 42 ÷ 50 × 100 = 84%. If the example B threshold is 80%, 84% falls in the example B band.

Assumptions

Points possible must be greater than zero.
The percentage uses raw points earned divided by raw points possible.
Example A/B/C/D thresholds are not official and should be changed to match the class scale.
Scores above 100% are possible when bonus or extra-credit points are included.
