2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• Marks — Score obtained in the subject
• Max — Maximum possible score
• Percentage — Result expressed as a percentage

A: Results are shown to two decimal places for accuracy.

Q3: Can I calculate percentage for multiple subjects?
A: This calculator is for single subjects. For multiple subjects, sum all marks and maximums first.

Q4: What if I have extra credit points?

Q5: How does this differ from grade point average?
A: Percentage is a direct score calculation, while GPA typically converts percentages to a standardized scale.
