Sagot :

Third Highest GPA = 79

Highest GPA = Third Highest GPA + 12
Highest GPA = 79 + 12
Highest GPA = 91

Lowest GPA = Third Highest GPA - 8
Lowest GPA = 79 - 8
Lowest GPA = 71

Fourth Highest GPA = Lowest GPA + 3
Fourth Highest GPA = 71 + 3
Fourth Highest GPA = 74

Second Highest GPA = Highest GPA - 5
Second Highest GPA = 91 - 5
Second Highest GPA = 86


answer is 74

his  GPA 79 + 12 = 91  91 is 1st highest

2nd highest GPA is 91-5=86

3rd highest GPA is 79

4th highest GPA is 71 + 3= 74

5th highest GPA is 79 -8 =71
