You can put this solution on YOUR website!
This is known as a weighted grade point average. You multiply the grade points by the number of credit hours given for each course. Then you divide the whole thing by the total number of credit hours taken. Thus:
((BX4)+(BX4)+(BX3)+(CX3))/4+4+3+3=GPA
12+12+9+6/14=""
39/14=""

Given the values you have described, the answer is 2.79.
