Grading assignment as points vs percentage

Hi there,

I am new to Canvas and struggling a lot with Grading. 

I have set up assignment groups and gave them all a weight (picture attached). I have an assignment called 'Business Plan' which is scored on 40 points but it carries a weight of 20% of the final grade. When I am scoring each student's submission of the Business Plan manually via Speedgrader and giving them a score, that score shows up as a wrong percentage in the Gradebook (picture attached). 

If you look at the attached Gradebook photo, why is Canvas taking a student who scored 30/40 and assigning his 75% when this particular assignment only carries 20% of the Final Grade. None of this is making any sense to me! Can you please tell me what am I doing wrong?
