Percentage Equivalent of a 16 out of 20 Grade

Can someone explain what grade a 16 out of 20 translates to in terms of a percentage? My teacher scores my work out of 20 and I find it tricky keeping track of my actual grade. Thanks!

A score of 16 out of 20 can be converted to the equivalent percentage by dividing the number of points you earned (16) by the total possible points (20) and then multiplying that result by 100.

Doing this math, we get (16 / 20) 100 = 80%.

So, if your teacher gave you a 16 out of 20, that would translate to an 80% grade. Stay consistent with your assignments and continue to aim for higher scores. You're on the right track! Keep striving for improvement, and you'll see ongoing progress!
