MBA: To get my calculations for the GPAs of the students in the MBA program at Whatsamattu U. I created the ranges from 2.5 -4.0. They were split into 6 different ranges. They were 2.5-2.75‚ 2.75-3.0‚ 3.0-3.25‚ 3.25-3.50‚ 3.50-3.75‚ 3.75-4.0. I then counted the frequency of each value. The text states that “the frequency column counts the total occurrences of each value”‚ Mirabella (2011). I found 0 students in the 2.5-2.75 gpa range‚ 20 in the 2.75-3.0 range‚ 47 in the 3.0-3.25 range‚ 44 in the
