What a 1/15 grade means

  • 1 correct and 14 wrong on a 15-question test.
  • Each question is worth 6.67%, so every wrong answer costs 6.67 percentage points.
  • Any score from 0 to 8 out of 15 is an F.
  • 8 more correct (9 out of 15, 60%) would make it a D.
  • It is below a 60% passing score, which needs 9 out of 15: 8 more correct.

How to work it out

  1. Divide the score by the total: 1 ÷ 15 = 0.0667.
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.0667 × 100 = 6.67%.
  3. Find 6.67% on the grading scale: A is 90% and up, B 80%, C 70% and D 60%, so it is an F.

Rounded to a whole number this is 7%, and the letter grade stays the same.
