How to calculate a quiz grade?
- First, determine the total number of problems on the quiz.
- Then count the number of incorrectly answered questions.
- Next, subtract the number of wrong questions from the total number of quiz questions.
- Then divide the result from step 3 by the total number of questions.
- Last, multiple the result from step 4 by 100 to determine your grade.
Grade Percentage Formula
grade percentage = ((total number of quiz questions - number wrong) / total number of quiz questions) * 100
Example Calculation
- For this example, let's assume there are 30 problems on a quiz. The total number of questions is equal to 30.
- Let's also assume that the student got 5 questions wrong. Therefore the number of questions wrong is equal to 5.
- Now subtract the number of wrong questions from the total number of quiz questions. That give us 30 - 5 = 25.
- Now divide the result from step 3 by the total number of quiz questions. That gives us 25 / 30 = 0.8333.
- To get the grade in percentages, multiple the result from step 4 by 100. In this example, the grade percentage is 0.8333 x 100 = 83.33%.
