Understanding Weighted Averages

What is a Weighted Average?

A weighted average gives different importance (weight) to different values in a calculation, unlike a simple average where all values are treated equally.

Formula

Weighted Average = (v₁×w₁ + v₂×w₂ + ... + vₙ×wₙ) ÷ (w₁ + w₂ + ... + wₙ)

Where v = value and w = weight

Common Applications

  • • GPA calculation (credits as weights)
  • • Investment portfolio returns
  • • Grade calculations (assignment weights)
  • • Statistical analysis (weighted surveys)
