What is a percentage calculator?
A percentage calculator turns marks obtained into a result out of 100. It can also combine several subjects by adding their obtained marks and maximum marks before calculating one overall percentage.
Academic calculator
Find a percentage from one marks total or combine results across several subjects in one clear calculation.
Choose your calculation
Use Option A for one marks total, or switch to Option B when you want to add several subjects.
Add your marks to see the total and percentage.
The quick guide
A percentage makes a result easier to compare with the maximum marks available.
A percentage calculator turns marks obtained into a result out of 100. It can also combine several subjects by adding their obtained marks and maximum marks before calculating one overall percentage.
For one result, divide the marks obtained by the total marks and multiply by 100. For multiple subjects, the calculator uses the combined totals so subjects with different maximum marks are weighted by their marks.
Formula
(total marks obtained ÷ total maximum marks) × 100
The same formula works after the subject marks have been added together.
Example
If your subjects total 240 marks out of 300, your percentage is (240 ÷ 300) × 100 = 80%.
Different schools and institutions may apply their own grading, weighting, or conversion rules. This calculator reports the marks-based percentage from the values you enter; check your course or institution guidance when an official result is required.
Yes. Decimal marks are accepted as long as they are zero or greater and do not exceed the maximum marks for that row.
The calculator adds obtained marks and maximum marks, then calculates one combined percentage. This keeps each subject’s contribution proportional to its available marks.
Yes. In Option B, use Remove on a row you no longer need. At least one subject row remains so there is always a place to start.
