In Ontario, grades are typically calculated as a percentage based on the marks obtained compared to the total possible marks. The formula used is:

Grade Percentage = (Marks Obtained / Total Marks) × 100

For example, if you scored 85 out of 100, your grade percentage would be 85%. This percentage is then converted to a letter grade based on the Ontario grading scale.

The Ontario education system uses a standardized grading scale to ensure consistency across schools and districts. This scale helps students understand their performance and sets clear expectations for academic achievement.
