Instructions:
(a) Copy your work to sheet2 of your workbook.
(b) Insert a new column after each subject with a label name ‘Grade’ in each.
(c) Given that:
75 – 100 = 1
70 – 74 = 2
65 – 69 = 3
60 – 64 = 4
55 – 59 = 5
45 – 54 = 6
40 – 44 = 7
35 – 39 = 8
0 – 34 = 9, hence; determine the grade scored by each student in each
subject.

(d) After the column for SCIE, add two columns for Aggregate and Division
respectively.
(e) Determine the aggregate by summing up all grades obtained by each
candidate.

than or equal to Grade 6.
❖ Aggregate 13 – 22 = 2, if a candidate passes ENG with less than or equal to
Grade 8.
❖ Aggregate 24 – 32 = 3,
❖ Aggregate 33 – 36 = 4, hence; determine divisions for each student using
appropriate columns.

(g) Apply a good line boarder around your work.

(h) In cell A13, enter the following labels downwards: Minimum, Maximum and
Average. Hence, determine the values for each basing on each subject
