About the Weighted Average Calculator

A weighted average gives more importance to some values than others. Use it for course grades where the final exam counts more than quizzes, for average purchase prices, or for survey scores.

Formula

Weighted average = Σ(value × weight) ÷ Σ weights. Example: quiz 80 (20%), mid 70 (30%), final 90 (50%) = 16 + 21 + 45 = 82.

Tip

Weights don't have to add up to 100; the calculator divides by their total automatically.
