Each A is worth 4 points, Bs are worth 3 points, Cs are worth 2 points, and Ds are worth 1 point. What is Jayne's GPA? Class Jayne's grade AP English C AP Government B Algebra II B Spanish D Physics A

Answer 1

Jayne's GPA is 3.6.

To solve, add the number of grade points for each letter grade and divide by the total number of letter grades.

AP English ⇒ 4 points
AP Government ⇒ 6 points
Algebra II ⇒ 3 points
Spanish ⇒ 1 point
Physics ⇒ 4 points
4 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 4 = 18
18 / 5 = 3.6
