If you got 55.6% on a test and that test is worth 80%

So first let us calculate the actual percentage that you scored.

The actual percentage is


\begin{gathered} (0.556)/(0.80)=0.695 \\ 0.695*100=69.5\% \end{gathered}

So your actual score on the test is 69.5%

The grading system varies across countries and states

The traditional grading scale is given below

90% to 100% corresponds to A grade.

80% to 89% corresponds to B grade.

70% to 79% corresponds to C grade.

60% to 69% corresponds to D grade.

0% to 59% corresponds to F grade.

69.5% can be rounded off to 70%

Therefore, 69.5% corresponds to C grade.

(note: the above grade is not valid in case your school follows a different grading scale)
