Numbers - IF function, using a range of numbers

Okay, so I need what I believe will be an IF function. It's for grade results.


The formula is based on the results of B7.


If B7 is greater than 90, then B8="A". But, here's the part I can't figure out. If B7=80 thru 89, then B8="B", and so on for the other grades.


Or maybe I need to achieve this a different way altogether? I'm open to suggestions.

One way, which assumes you don't have too many different letter grades to keep track of, is to use a "nested if" formula:


=IF(B7≥90,"A",IF(B7≥80,"B",IF(B7≥70,"C",IF(B7≥60,"D","F"))))


I recommend having a look at the 'Grade Book' template at File > New in your menu. It has a more sophisticated scheme that accounts for A+, A- etc., using VLOOKUP to look up the letter grade in another table. To see how it does this, click cell H4 and look at the formula there.
