Mathematical Formula & Method
GPA Calculator Formula
GPA = Σ(Course Credits × Grade Points) / Σ(Course Credits)
Worked Examples & Step-by-Step Solutions
3 Courses: 4 cr (A), 3 cr (B+), 3 cr (A−)
- Total quality points: (4×4.0) + (3×3.3) + (3×3.7) = 16 + 9.9 + 11.1 = 37.0.
- Total credits: 4 + 3 + 3 = 10.
- GPA = 37.0 / 10 = 3.70.
How to Use the GPA Calculator
