INTRODUCTIONExcel is a spreadsheet program made and
distributed by Microsoft that can be used in numerous different ways.
The most common usage of excel is to organize data, make charts, and run statistical analysis.
Anyone can use Excel. In this presentation, we will be showing how
to make a weighted grade calculator. To do this process, you will need a computer
with the excel program installed.
STEP 1.Label the rows with the proper headings as listed:
a. A2: Itemb. B2: Worthc. C2: Points receivedd. D3: Total points possible for assignment (Out of)e. E2: Grade Revisedf. F2: Weighted
STEP 2.Label the Columns from A3 downward with the appropriate assignments and one cell labeled “Total”
Ex:a. A3: Exam 1b. A4: Exam 2c. A5: Exam 3d. A6: Finale. A9: Total
STEP 3In columns B3-B6 (Exam 1-Exam 4) insert the percent weighted as listed in the syllabus as a decimal
a. In the column B9, enter the equation =SUM (B3:B6)
STEP 4In columns C3-C6 enter the point received on an assignment
STEP 5In columns D3-D6 enter the total points possible for the corresponding assignment
STEP 6In columns E3-E6: enter a division function for each row of assignments by dividing cells in column C by cells in column D
a. E3:= C3/D3b. E4: =C4/D4c. E5: =C5/D5d. E6: =E5/E6
Step 7In column F, enter the function B*E for each row of assignments
a. F3: =B3*E3b. F4: = B4*E4c. F5: = B5*E5d. F6: = B6*E6
Step 8In cell F9: insert another SUM function from the range of F3-F6
a. F9:= SUM(F3:F6) * 100b. Here your final grade will appear
Your Grade!
