Answer 1

1.18

Step-by-step explanation:

The GPA is calcuated as follows

`GPA=\frac{grade\text{ points}}{total\text{ credits}}`

where a grade point = score assicated with the grade * number of credit hours for the course.

Now in our case, the grade points earned are

`3(1.0)+4(0)+3(2.0)+1(4)=13`

And the total number of credit hour are

`3+4+3+1=11`

Therefore, the GPA (rounded to the nearest hundredth) is

`GPA=(13)/(11)=1.18`
`\boxed{GPA=1.18.}`

which is our answer!
