Question 262907
A student receives his grade report from a local community college, but the GPA is smudged. He took the following classes: a 2 hour credit art, a 3 hour credit history, a 4 hour credit science course, a 3 hour credit mathematics course, and a 1 hour science lab. He received a “B” in the art class, an “A” in the history class, a “C” in the science class, a “B” in the mathematics class, and an “A” in the science lab. What was his GPA if the letter grades are based on a 4 point scale? (A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0) 


Art - 2*3  (hours*grade value)
History - 3*4
Science - 4*2
Math - 3*3
Lab - 1*4 

GPA = total points/total hours = (6+12+8+9+4)/13 = 39/13 = 3.0
