Good to know
Percentage = marks obtained ÷ maximum marks × 100. 412 out of 500 is 412 ÷ 500 × 100 = 82.4%. Subject-wise, all marks and all maximums are added first, so a paper out of 50 counts half as much as one out of 100.
CBSE, most state boards and many universities need about 33% in each subject to pass, which is why the tool also checks every subject, not just the total. Your board or university rules decide the exact pass mark, grace marks and whether practicals count separately.
Admission forms sometimes ask for the "best of five" percentage or exclude additional subjects. Enter only the subjects the form asks for. For CGPA to percentage, use the CGPA converter.
Questions
How do I calculate the percentage of my marks?
Divide your total marks by the maximum marks and multiply by 100. For 438 out of 600: 438 ÷ 600 × 100 = 73%.
How do I calculate best of five percentage?
Choose subject-wise and enter only the five subjects you want to count (usually including one language). The overall percentage is then your best-of-five.
What is the pass percentage in CBSE?
Generally 33% in each subject, with theory and practical rules set by CBSE. Check the latest CBSE circular for your exam.
Should I round off my percentage?
Write it as the form asks. Many forms want two decimals; do not round up, since 59.995% is not 60% for eligibility.
Is my data stored?
No. Everything is calculated on your device and nothing is sent anywhere.
