document.write( "Question 77831: In college, some courses contribute more towards an overall GPA than other courses. For example, a science class is worth 4 points, math is worth 3 points, history is worth 2 points; and English is worth 3 points. The values of the grade letters are as follows, A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0. What is the GPA of a student who made a \"C\" in Trigonometry, a \"B\" in American History, an \"A\" in Botany, and a \"B\" in Microbiology? Please explain how to work this problem! Thanks so much for your time to help me! \n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "The student has C in Trigonometry = 2 points\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The student has B in American Histoy = 3 points\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The student has A in Botany = 4 points\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The student has B in Microbiology = 3 points\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "total points = 2+3+4+3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " = 12\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "GPA = 12/4\r
