What Is an Average Calculator?

An average calculator finds the mean of a set of numbers — add them all up and divide by how many there are. It can also help with the median (middle value) and mode (most common value).

Average (Mean) Formula

Mean = (sum of all values) ÷ (number of values)

Example: the average of 10, 20, 30 and 40 → (10 + 20 + 30 + 40) ÷ 4 = 100 ÷ 4 = 25.

Types of Average

Type How it works
Mean Sum of values ÷ number of values
Median The middle value when sorted
Mode The most frequent value
Weighted mean Each value × its weight, summed, ÷ total weight
“Average” usually means the mean, but median and mode are useful too.
