IF(A4>69,"C",IF(A4>59,"D","F")))) third score (C)

In the preceding example, the second IF statement is also the value_if_false argument to
the first IF statement. Similarly, the third IF statement is the value_if_false argument to
the second IF statement. For example, if the first logical_test (Average>89) is TRUE, "A"
is returned. If the first logical_test is FALSE, the second IF statement is evaluated, and so
on.

The letter grades are assigned to numbers using the following key.

If Score is Then return

Greater than 89 A
From 80 to 89 B
From 70 to 79 C
From 60 to 69 D
