1. What is Marks Percentage Calculator?

The Marks Percentage Calculator helps students calculate their subject-wise percentage in class based on the marks obtained and maximum possible marks. It provides a quick way to determine academic performance.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the percentage formula:

Where:

• \( Subject\ Marks \) — Marks obtained in the subject
• \( Max\ Marks \) — Maximum possible marks for the subject

Explanation: The formula calculates what portion of the total marks was achieved, expressed as a percentage.

3. Importance of Percentage Calculation

Details: Percentage scores help students understand their academic performance, compare results across different subjects, and track progress over time.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter obtained marks and maximum marks for the subject. Both values must be valid (marks ≥ 0, max marks > 0, and obtained marks ≤ max marks).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What if I get more marks than maximum?
A: The calculator will show an error as obtained marks cannot exceed maximum marks.

Q2: How precise are the calculations?
A: Results are calculated to 2 decimal places for accuracy.

Q3: Can I calculate percentage for multiple subjects?
A: This calculator is for single subject. For multiple subjects, you would need to sum all marks and all maximum marks first.

Q4: What's considered a good percentage?
A: Typically, 75% and above is good, 60-75% is average, and below 60% may need improvement, though standards vary by institution.

Q5: How is this different from CGPA?
A: Percentage is marks-based while CGPA is grade-point based. Some institutions convert between them using specific formulas.
