Financial aid restriction?

I have a question regarding my financial aid. I found out that I am failing math and I know this even before the final. I have never failed a class before so I am not sure how this works. I am taking two other classes (which I am passing A and B) but am worried about percentage. My college calculates on 67% progress. How do they come to that figure? I would like to try to calculate it myself so I can get an idea of whether I should be worried, or not.

Thanks--
 
You have three classes that are, let's say, three credits each. So you have 9 credits total.
You pass 2 of those classes so you earn 6/9 credits.
6/9 = 2/3 = 67%

But let's say one of the two classes you're passing is four credits instead of just 3. So you have a total of 10 attempted credits and 7 earned.
7/10 = 70%

However, if your math class is four credits then you have earned 6 and failed 4.
6/10 = 2/5 = 60%
