Was it just a straight percentage? Like from 0-100%?

Depending on the school system there's a 10 point or 6 point scale. There might be others but I've never heard of them. In the 10 point scale 90-100 is and A, 80-89 is a B and so on. In the 6 point scale 94-100 is an A, 88-93 is a B and so on. An A = 4.0, B, = 3.0, etc. If they use +/- grades it affects the GPA but I forget by how much.
