Question

In some 4.0 grading systems, a student's grade point average (GPA) is calculated by assigning letter grades the following numerical values.

A = 4.00 B− = 2.67 D+ = 1.33
A− = 3.67 C+ = 2.33 D = 1.00
B+ = 3.33 C = 2.00 D− = 0.67
B = 3.00 C− = 1.67 F = 0.00
Use this grading system to find this student's GPA. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 2

This student's GPA is 3.04.

Explanation:

Student's GPA:

To find the students GPA, we find the sum of the multiplication of each numerical grade(A is 4, A- is 3.67 and so on) and the credit load of the course, divided by the number of courses.

His grades are:

4 in English worth 3 credits.

4 in Antropology worth 3 credits.

2.67 in Chemistry worth 4 credits.

2 in French worth 4 credits.

3 in Theatre worth 2 credits.

GPA:

`(4*3+4*3+2.67*4+2*4+3*2)/(3+3+4+4+2) = 3.04`

This student's GPA is 3.04.
