Decoding assignment scores

Hey guys, really would appreciate your inputs here. I just got an assignment score back: I scored 9/15. I'm kind of clueless as to what that might mean in terms of a letter grade. Can anyone assist me in understanding this?

Assuming your class uses a straightforward percentage grading system, you can roughly calculate your grade by dividing your score by the total possible points and multiply by 100. In your case that would be (9/15)100=60%.

How that corresponds to a letter grade can vary depending on your professor or school's specific grading scale, but traditionally, 60% might fall into a D- range. But remember, grading scales vary, some schools may use a +/- system, and sometimes other factors can adjust an individual assignment grade. Check your course syllabus or speak with your professor to get the most accurate understanding of your assignment score.
