How to calculate a grade out of 4
Percent = score ÷ 4 × 100
For example, 3 out of 4 is 3 ÷ 4 = 0.75, × 100 = 75%, a C. Every question you miss costs 25 percentage points, so the gap between letters is often a single question.
Letters follow the standard U.S. plus/minus grading scale. If your teacher uses different cutoffs (like 93/85/77/70), build a custom chart with the EZ Grader. For a single score, the test grade calculator is quickest.
