In A1 enter 85 (your current grade)
In B1 enter 80% ( your current percentage)
In C1 enter 90 ( the minimum grade needed for an A)
In D1 enter:
=(C1-A1*B1)/(1-B1)
This displays more than 100 and therefore you cannot get an A. In fact if your final 20% grade was 100, the overall average would be only 88%
Next change C1 to 81 (the minimum grade needed for a B)
Now D1 displays 65. This means that even if the final 20% was as low as 65, your overall average is 81 and you get the B
