Default Help with Vlookup

In my table array I only have two columns, the first contains percents and
the other contains a letter grade that corresponds to that percent. Such as
100%, A+ (next row) 93%, A )next row) 90%, A-. And so on. My lookup value
cell will sometimes contain a percent that a isnt a solid 93% or 90%. More
like a 92.37% or a 98.12 %. How do I make it so that the Vlookup function
will still pair a letter grade to a percentile that inst necessarily written
in the table array?

Default Help with Vlookup

Put your values in ascending order, & set the range_lookup parameter of the
VLOOKUP function to TRUE (or leave blank).

For VLOOKUP, or any other Excel function except DATEDIF, if you need help,
try Excel help.

Sort that in ascending order as below and use

Col A Col B
90% A-
93% A
100% A+

With lookup value in cell C1 try the below formulas

=VLOOKUP(C1,$A$1:$B$10,2)
OR
=LOOKUP(C1,$A$1:$A$10,$B$1:$B$10)
