Eight subjects with a grade of 12.5

Student : Hi, mommy!
Mommy : Hi, student! What's up?
Student : One thing. I got 100.
Mommy : Oh.
Student : Good thing, you liked my grades.

Soon, when he got his report card, he got 12.5 in all his subjects.

Mommy : What?!?!?!
Student : Mommy, I studied well.
Mommy : No, you didn't. Look at your report card!

Question : Why did he get 12.5 in all his subjects?

12.5*8=100 Thus he got a 100

But, what if he got 100 all? There's a grade of 800? Than 6400? 51200? Too big grades!
