Like percentage, Grades will be assigned to student for each course. Grades are A = 4.0; B = 3.0; C = 2.0 ; D = 1.0; F = 0; And for each course based on difficulty level weights will be assigned. Its called Credit Hours.

Usually Graduate courses in Masters program will have 3 Credit Hours. For our example lets assume all 3 courses have 3 credits each. Lets say at end of the semester, professor assign you following grades

* Grade B to Course X
* Grade A to Course Y
* Grade A to course Z

GPA is calculated as follows

Total Grades = Sum of (Grade * Credit Hours) = B*3 + A*3 + A*3 = 3*3+4*3+4*3 =33

Total Credit Hours = 3+3+3 = 9

GPA = Total Grades/Total Credit Hours = 23/9 = 3.66

K then

A 90-100 3.5-4.0
B 80-89 2.5-3.49
C 70-79 1.5-2.49
D 60-69 1.0-1.49
F 0 - 59 0.0

or this is:

70%+ A+ 4.3
65-69% A 4.0
60-64% A- 3.5-3.7
55-59% B+ 3.3-3.5
50-54% B/B- 3.0-3.3
45-49% C+ 2.1-2.7
40-44% C/C- 1.5-2.0
Less than 40% F 0

We have a GPA system in canada here in university, it depends on the universitiy. My university converted average into GPA 0 to 4.3. Some unis here do it from 0 to 10 GPA.
