A Grade Point Average (GPA) is another kind of weighted average. Letter grades are assigned a number value in order to calculate a numerical average. To calculate your GPA divide the total number quality points earned (a 4 hour A earns 16 quality points) by the total number of registered credits. This table shows typical point values: A | A- | B+ | B | B- | C+ | C | C- | D+ | D | D- | F 4.0 | 3.7 | 3.3 | 3.0 | 2.7 | 2.3 | 2.0 | 1.7 | 1.3 | 1.0 | 0.7 | 0 A Kent State University student has earned 50 credits towards his degree but has a GPA of just 1.75. The registrar's office has informed this student that he is on probation and will be suspended unless his overall GPA is at least 2.0 after the fall term. (a) If he takes 15 credit hours this fall what is the minimum GPA he must earn this semester in order to avoid being suspended? (Round to 2 decimal places)? (b) Would an A- in a 4-hour class, a C+ in a 5-hour class, a B- in a 3-hour class and a B+ in a 3-hour class yield at least this GPA (yes or no) ?
