To find your grade as a percentage, you can divide the score you received by the total possible score, then multiply by 100.
So, in your case:
\[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{10}{16} \right) \times 100 \]
Calculating that:
\[ \text{Percentage} = 0.625 \times 100 = 62.5% \]
Thus, a score of 10 out of 16 is equivalent to 62.5%.
Grades can vary by institution, but typically:
- A = 90% and above
- B = 80% - 89%
- C = 70% - 79%
- D = 60% - 69%
- F = below 60%
Based on that scale, a score of 62.5% would generally be a letter grade of D. However, please check the specific grading scale used by your school or institution.
