1. What is a Grade Calculator with Percentage Weight?

Definition: This calculator computes a weighted average grade based on individual grades and their percentage weights.

Purpose: It helps students and educators determine final grades when different components (exams, assignments) have different weights.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ \text{Final Grade} = \sum \left( \frac{\text{Grade} \times \% \text{Weight}}{100} \right) \]

Where:

Grade — Individual component grade (0-100%)
% Weight — Importance of that component (as percentage of total)

Explanation: Each grade is multiplied by its weight percentage, then all results are summed to get the final weighted grade.

3. Importance of Weighted Grade Calculation

Details: Proper grade weighting ensures fair evaluation when different course components have different importance levels.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter grades (0-100%) and their corresponding weights (%). The total weight should typically equal 100% for accurate results.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What if my weights don't add up to 100%?
A: The calculator will still work, but results represent the weighted average of the entered components only.

Q2: Can I add more than two grade components?
A: Yes, simply add additional grade and weight pairs in the form fields.

Q3: How are decimal grades handled?
A: Grades are calculated with decimal precision for accurate results.

Q4: What's the maximum grade I can enter?
A: The calculator accepts grades from 0% to 100%.

Q5: Can I use this for non-academic grading?
A: Yes, this works for any weighted average calculation where components have different importance.
