CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is commonly used in schools and universities to measure academic performance. However, many organizations and universities require the **percentage equivalent** for admissions and job applications. The **CGPA to Percentage Calculator** helps in quick and accurate conversion.

What is CGPA?

CGPA represents the **average of grade points** obtained in all subjects, calculated on a scale (usually **10-point or 4-point**). It provides a standardized method to evaluate academic performance without the impact of individual subject variations.

How to Convert CGPA to Percentage?

The formula to convert **CGPA to Percentage** varies by institution. The most common formulas are:

**For a 10-Point CGPA System:**
**Percentage = CGPA × 9.5** (Used by CBSE and many universities in India)

**For a 4-Point CGPA System:**
**Percentage = (CGPA ÷ 4) × 100** (Common in U.S. and international universities)

Example Calculations

- If your CGPA is **8.0** (on a 10-point scale), then:
**8.0 × 9.5 = 76%**

- If your CGPA is **3.5** (on a 4-point scale), then:
**(3.5 ÷ 4) × 100 = 87.5%**
