What the numbers mean
If a test awards one mark per point, 25 marks out of 32 leaves 7 marks unearned. One more mark would give approximately 81.25%. Check the rounding note when the decimal repeats. Your school or course sets the grading scale; this percentage alone does not determine a letter grade.
A mistake to avoid
Use the total available as the denominator. A percentage does not determine a letter grade, and separately weighted subjects need their actual weights.
