To calculate the GPA:
\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{\text{Total Quality Points}}{\text{Total Credits}} \]
GPA calculation helps you determine your Grade Point Average based on the credits and grades of your courses. It is important for academic performance assessment.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{Total Quality Points} = (3 \times 4) + (4 \times 3.3) + (2 \times 2) = 12 + 13.2 + 4 = 29.2 \]
\[ \text{Total Credits} = 3 + 4 + 2 = 9 \]
\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{29.2}{9} \approx 3.24 \]
The calculated GPA is approximately 3.24.
