for the HOPE scholarship Marci must have a core weighted average of a 3.0. A's are
worth 4 points, B's are worth 3 points, C's are worth 2 points, and D's are worth 1
point. Over the past 4 years Marci has made 10 A's, 4 B's and 2 C's. Calculate Marci's
GPA and see if she will qualify for the HOPE Scholarship.

Respuesta :

Marci's GPA is 3.5 which is enough for her to qualify for the HOPE Scholarship.

What is Average?

This is a mean value which is calculated by the sum of the numbers given divided by the total number of numbers given.

We were given that she had 10 A's, 4 B's and 2 C's and A's are worth 4 points, B's are worth 3 points which means the sum will be:

  • 10A's = 10×4 =40
  • 4 B's = 4×3 =12
  • 2 C's = 2×2 = 4

The sum= 40+12+4 = 56

The total number of courses is 10+4+2 = 16

CGPA = 56/16 = 3.5

This score is above the core weighted average of a 3.0 which means she qualified for the HOPE scholarship.
