Example

The numbers 12, 15, 18, 14, and 16 add to 75. Their average is 15.00.

Good to know

  • Every entry has to be a real number. A word in the list produces no result, rather than a skipped value.

Common questions

Is this the same average as the standard deviation page?
Yes. Both use the arithmetic mean. The standard deviation page also shows how far the numbers sit from that mean.
