Question

One common system for computing a grade point average​ (GPA) assigns 4 points to an​ A, 3 points to a​ B, 2 points to a​ C, 1 point to a​ D, and 0 points to an F. What is the GPA of a student who gets an A in a 3​-credit ​course, a B in each of three 2​-credit ​courses, a C in a 4​-credit ​course, and a D in a 3​-credit ​course?

Answer 1

Answer: 2.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

A credits: (4x 3) = 12

B credits: (3x3x2) = 18

C credits: (2x4) = 8

D credits: (1x3) =3

The total credit points are 41

The total credits the student took to earn the points was 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 4 + 3= 16.

To figure out GPA: credit points/credits= 41/16 = 2.5625
