Example: If you earned a B in a 3-credit course, your earned grade points for that course would be 9. Calculate your total grade points achieved by adding together the individual grade points. Calculate your GPA by dividing your total grade points achieved by the total credits attempted.
Four credit units require students to work on that course for about 180 (45x4) hours in some combination of class/instructional time and out-of-class time. This definition does not vary with instructional mode.
Quality points are determined by multiplying your grade in a course by the number of credits. So an “A” in a 4-credit course is worth 16 quality points because 4 is the numerical equivalent of an A (see chart below).
If the A is in a 1-credit-hour course, they will earn a 3.3 GPA. Same grades, same total number of credit hours, but different weights based on the credit hours of the course.
The total quality points earned for a course are computed through multiplying the number of credits for the course by the quality point value of the grade received (ex. An A- in a 3-credit course earns 3×3.7=11.1 points.)
It depends on how many quality points they earn for each grade. If the D is in a 1-credit-hour course, the student will earn a 3.76 GPA. If the A is in a 1-credit-hour course, they will earn a 3.3 GPA. Same grades, same total number of credit hours, but different weights based on the credit hours of the course.

Quality points are determined by multiplying the number of course credits by the numerical value of the assigned grade. For example, a three-credit course completed with a grade of B- would carry 8.1 quality points (three credits multiplied by a 2.7 numerical grade equals 8.1 quality points for that course).
Credit Point: It is the product of grade point and number of credits for a course. Credit: A unit by which the course work is measured. It determines the number of hours of instructions required per week.

Points are assigned based on the table below for each semester-hour completed. Thus the number of credits must be multiplied by the quality points per credit to determine the number of quality points earned. For example, a B in a 3-credit course will earn a student 9 quality points.
B+ is a good high school grade. As a matter of fact, it's an above-average high school grade. B+ is equivalent to 87% to 89%. It's also equivalent to a 3.3 GPA.
