Question

A student earned grades of Upper Aâ, Upper Câ, Upper Aâ, Upper Câ, and Upper D. Those courses had the corresponding numbers of credit hours 3â, 4â, 3â, 2â, and 4. The grading system assigns quality points to letter grades asâ follows: Aequalsâ4; Bequalsâ3; Cequalsâ2; Dequalsâ1; Fequals0. Compute the grade point averageâ (GPA) as a weighted mean and round the result with two decimal places. If theâ Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.00 orâ greater, did this student make theâ Dean's list?

Answer 1

G.P.A.=2.5

The Student did not make the Dean's List

Explanation:

The Students Grade and Subject Weight are listed below.

[TeX]\left|\begin{array}c------&-------&------&------\\ Grade&Credit Hour& Grade Weight & Product \\------&-------&------&------\\ A & 3 & 4 & 12 \\ C & 4 & 2 & 8\\A & 3 & 4 & 12\\C & 2 & 2 & 4\\D & 4 & 1 & 4\\------&-------&------&------\\Total& &16 &40 \end{array} \right| [/TeX]

Grade Point Average=Total Credit Hour÷Total Number of Hours

=40÷16

G.P.A.=2.5

Since the Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.0 or greater, the student does not make the Dean's list.
