3.60 GPA
If someone tells you they have a 3.60 GPA is it possible to estimate around how many As, Bs and Cs they got? Is it possible to get that kinda grade point average if you for example have 50% of your grade as a C and the other 50 as A? (hope I'm making sense)

A's = 4pts
B's = 3pts
C's = 2pts
D's = 1pt.
2 C's = 4, 2A's=8. 8+4=12. 12/4=3. So that would be a 3.0 gpa.
BUT there are exeptions. That would be the unweighted GPA. If the person is in honors or AP classes, then the weighted GPA is much higher.
2nd semester my sophomore year I was in 2 honors classes and two regular classes. I'll break down my GPA from that year.
Foods 1: I made a B which gave me 3 GPA pts. Weighted and unweighted
Honors Geometry I made a C+ which gave me 2.something unweighted and 3.something weighted (I forgot that it's not always a perfect number, I'm not sure how they figure in the decimals though).
3rd period I had Spanish 1. I made an A, so that was a perfect 4.0
4th period I had honors english 2b. I made a B which was 3.0 unweighted, 4.0 weighted.
My unweighted GPA would have been 3.__ (I think it was actually 3.4_)
My weighted GPA would have been 3.5 (But I think there were more decimals in it.)
It works something like that.
So I guess to answer your question - Yes and no.
It depends. If they're in honors/AP classes etc. then it would be a lot harder to do so. Even if they're not you may think they have all B's but they could have 3A's and a D or something like that. So truly it really depends. You could do it, but there are a lot of possibilities. Once you get into a class such as statistics you learn a lot more on probability and you see how many different outcomes there could be. It would be hard to get it dead on.
Get what I'm saying? If not let me know.
