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 33-credit course, a B in each of three 44-credit courses, a C in a 33-credit course, and a D in a 44-credit course?

The GPA for the student is 2.634

Explanation:

GRADE POINT AVERAGE

This is a number representing the average value of the accumulated final grades earned in courses over time, commonly called a GPA. A student’s grade point average is calculated by adding up all accumulated final grades and dividing that figure by the number of grades awarded. The result of this calculation is a mathematical mean or average of all final grades. One of the most common form of GPA is based on a 0 to 4.0 scale (A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, and F = 0), with a 4.0 being the best or highest and 0 the lowest. Schools may also assign partial points for “plus” or “minus” letter grades, such as a 3.7 for an A–, a 3.3 for a B+, and so on. Grade Point Average (GPA) may be calculated at the end of a course, semester, or grade level, and a “cumulative GPA” represents an average of all final grades individual students earned from the time they first enrolled in a school to the completion of their education.

Given the grading system in the question

A-4

B-3

C-2

D-1

F-0

GPA = Total Accumulated Points/ Total Sum of Credit Unit

=638/242 =2.634

The GPA for the student is 2.634
