To calculate the overall grade based on your letters, we need to assign numerical values to each grade. Commonly, the grading scale is as follows:
- A = 4 points
- B = 3 points
- C = 2 points
Let's count the number of each grade you provided:
- A: 5 occurrences
- B: 1 occurrence
- C: 1 occurrence
Now, we can calculate the total points:
\[ \text{Total Points} = (5 \times 4) + (1 \times 3) + (1 \times 2) = 20 + 3 + 2 = 25 \]
Next, we need to divide by the total number of grades:
\[ \text{Total Grades} = 5 + 1 + 1 = 7 \]
Now calculate the average grade point:
\[ \text{Average Grade Point} = \frac{25}{7} \approx 3.57 \]
To convert this back to a letter grade, you generally look at the average point values:
- 4.0 = A
- 3.0 - 3.99 = B
- 2.0 - 2.99 = C
- 1.0 - 1.99 = D
- Below 1.0 = F
With an average of approximately 3.57, the overall grade would be a B.
