The grading system assigns quality points to letter grades as​ follows: A= 4, B=3, C=2,D=1, and F=0. Compute the grade point average​ (GPA) and round the result to two decimal places

Answer 1

The grade point average of the student is 49.92.

Explanation:

A student earned grades :​ C, A,​ B, and A

Corresponding numbers of credit​ hours : 44​, 66​, 11​, and 66

Assigns quality points to letter grades :

A = 4 , B = 3 , C = 2 , D = 1 , F = 0

The grade point average​ (GPA):

`\frac{\sum (\text{grade point}* \text{credit hours})}{\sum (\text{grade point})}`

`=(2* 44+4* 66+3* 11+4* 66)/(2+4+3+4)`

`=(649)/(13)=49.9230\approx 49.92`

The grade point average of the student is 49.92.
