Formula

Percentage = total marks obtained ÷ total maximum marks × 100. Each subject's own percentage = marks ÷ that subject's maximum × 100.

Example

English 78, Maths 95, Science 88, Social Science 70 and Hindi 82 out of 100 each, plus IT 45 out of 50: total 458 out of 550 = 83.27%. The best five by percentage are Maths (95%), IT (90%), Science (88%), Hindi (82%) and English (78%), giving about 83.6%.

Tips

  • Check which subjects your college counts in "best of 5"; some require English or a language.
  • To convert a CGPA instead, use the CGPA to percentage converter.

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate percentage of marks?

Add the marks you scored in all subjects, divide by the total maximum marks and multiply by 100. For example, 458 out of 550 is 83.27%.

What is 'best of 5'?

Many colleges and boards use the five subjects with the highest percentage. The calculator picks them for you when you choose 'Best 5'.

What if subjects have different maximum marks?

Enter each subject's own maximum (for example 100 for theory subjects and 50 for a practical). The total percentage is weighted by those maximums.
