can someone explain how a grade calculator actually works?

I’m trying to figure out my final grade, but I’m confused about how assignments, quizzes, and exams are weighted. If I enter my scores in a grade calculator, does it automatically calculate everything correctly, or do I need to adjust the percentages myself? Just want to make sure I’m not reading my results wrong.

Hey! Most grade calculators will automatically compute your final grade if you enter your scores along with the correct weight percentages for assignments, quizzes, and exams. Just make sure the weights match what your syllabus says; otherwise, the result might be off. Double-checking never hurts!

You need to enter your scores with the correct weights otherwise the calculator might give the wrong result
