To compute a student's Grade Point Average (GPA) for a term, the student's grades for each course are weighted by the number of credits for the course. Suppose a student had these grades: 3.9 in a 5 credit Math course 2.1 in a 3 credit Music course 2.9 in a 4 credit Chemistry course 3.4 in a 4 credit Journalism course What is the student's GPA for that term

Respuesta :

Answer:

The student GPA is 3.1875

Step-by-step explanation:

First we calculate the grade point by multiplying the grade with the weight;

= (3.9 * 5) + (2.1 * 3) + (2.9 * 4) + (3.4 * 4)

= 19.5 + 6.3 + 11.6 + 13.6

= 51

Total weight = 5+3+4+4=16

GPA = 51/16=3.1875
