With a grade point average of 3.83, Michelle Robinson graduated above the 93rd percentile of her graduating class.

Let the full grade point be x

His Percentile = [tex]\frac{3.83}{x} \times 100[/tex]

By the problem,

[tex]\frac{3.83}{x}\times 100 = 93\\x = \frac{3.83\times 100}{93}\\x = 4.118[/tex]

Median GPA = [tex]\frac{4.118}{2} =2.059[/tex]

Percentile rank of the student whose GPA was the median GPA = [tex]\frac{2.059}{4.118}\times 100[/tex]
