She earned a grade of Upper D in her 5-hour discrete math course, a grade of Upper B in her 3-hour sociology course, a grade of Upper C in her 1-hour engineering course, and a grade of Upper B in her 5-hour philosophy course. Assuming that A equals 4 points, B equals 3 points, C equals 2 points, D equals 1 point, and F is worth no points, determine Patty’s grade point average for the semester.
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:Grade Point Average = 2.21Step-by-step explanation:GPA (Grade Point Average) would be:multiplying the individual point with respective credit hours and SUMMING THEMThendividing all of them by the total number of credit hoursHence,5(1) + 3(3) + 1(2) +5(3) = 5 + 9 + 2 + 15 = 31 [note: the numbers in parenthesis is the points and outside the parenthesis is the credit-hours]Nowtotal credit hours is 5 + 3 + 1 + 5 = 14GPA = 31/14 = 2.21
