Presenting GPA: Honours Classification vs Exact GPA

Hi all, I am currently a junior and I have a double major in finance & food science. I am wondering which way to present a relatively low GPA is better. I have tried searching but the advices are conflicting; eg low gpa should be kept off resume vs not writing gpa raises concern.

Here's the two alternative I consider: 1. Upper second class honours (2:1) (range 3-3.59 in my uni) 2. Finance major GPA: 3.4, Cumulative GPA: 3.2 (I do double major so I write finance major)

Any advice and/or opinion will be greatly appreciated!
