Points earned / possible points * 100 = percentage score.
.
87.5/120 * 100 = 72.916666666%
.
That rounds to 73%.
.
But the grade depends on what the grading system says it is. There is no standard for grades. Some schools use 7-point ranges, some use 10. Some use + and - grades, some don't. And so forth.
