Question

Assume a student received the following grades for the semester: History, B; Statistics, A; Spanish, C; and English, C. History and English are 5 credit-hour courses, Statistics a 4 credit-hour course, and Spanish is a 3 credit-hour course. If 4 grade points are assigned for an A, 3 for a B, and 2 for a C, what is the weighted mean grade for the semester?

Answer 1

2,76

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to multiply the number of hours for the grade points.

History=5x3= 15

Statistics= 4x4= 16

Spanish= 3x2= 6

English= 5x2= 10

15+16+6+10= 47

Then, determine the total number of hours= 5+4+3+5= 17

Finally, divide: 47/17= 2,76
