Overall grade

1 answer

To calculate an overall grade based on the individual grades you've provided (B, B, C, D), we can assign grade points to each letter grade. Here’s a common scale:

  • A = 4.0
  • B = 3.0
  • C = 2.0
  • D = 1.0
  • F = 0.0

Now, let's convert each letter grade to grade points:

  • B = 3.0 (2 instances)
  • C = 2.0
  • D = 1.0

Next, we calculate the total grade points:

  • Total Grade Points = (3.0 + 3.0 + 2.0 + 1.0) = 9.0

Now, we'll divide by the number of grades:

  • Number of Grades = 4
  • Average Grade Points = Total Grade Points / Number of Grades = 9.0 / 4 = 2.25

Now we convert the average grade points back to a letter grade. According to the common scale, an average of 2.25 typically corresponds to a C.

Overall Grade: C
