Grade percentages (all new to me)

It is possible to work out the mark you got for exams if you've been provided a combined grade (of essay and exam) for example...

I got 48% in an essay worth 40% of grade and then 61% overall after the exam.

I got 68% in another essay worth 60% and then 66% overall after the exam.

Is this calculation even doable?!

Thank you!
Yup, I normally find this website really useful.

Just type for example - 40 and 60 in the percentage part, and your grades in the 'mark' part.
Usually too lazy to do the math. :colondollar:

Haha, thank you! However, I am confused how to use it as I do not know my separate exam grade (only the combined one)
yeah you can do that calculation :
you got 69.7 in your first one

63 in your second one

Didn't you just say you got 48 and 60? Those would be your separate grades?

Sorry if I'm missing something here.

Edit: Oh! I see what you mean now.
You could still technically use the site and work backwards, entering decreasing values in the 60% section until you reach the one that matches your overall grade.
