Question

question 11, 7.3.15
find the grade - point average. assume that the grade - point values are 4 points for an a, 3 points for a b, and 2 points for a c, 1 point for a d, and 0 points for an f.
the grade - point average is
(round to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
grade credit hours
b 3
c 3
a 2
c 3

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the product of grade - point value and credit - hours for each grade

For B (3 points, 3 credit - hours): $3\times3 = 9$
For C (2 points, 3 credit - hours): $2\times3=6$
For A (4 points, 2 credit - hours): $4\times2 = 8$
For C (2 points, 3 credit - hours): $2\times3=6$

Step2: Calculate the total grade - point value

$9 + 6+8 + 6=29$

Step3: Calculate the total credit - hours

$3 + 3+2 + 3=11$

Step4: Calculate the grade - point average

The grade - point average (GPA) is the total grade - point value divided by the total credit - hours. So, $GPA=\frac{29}{11}\approx2.64$

Answer:

$2.64$
