Need helpl fast..mental block

[Marc]

Am working from home and I have a list of 2 set percentages, 10% and 20% and I need to work out the average % of the 2. How do I do it ahahah, I have a complete mental block. There are 1962 at 20% and 1471 at 10%

 

[old.Tohtori]

Isn't the average % of two % the one that's in the middle?

Like...15%?

Kinda like with numbers.

I can't remember sh*t about math though :lol:

Or i misunderstood the question.

 

[Marc]

No its not 15% because there isnt the same amount of 10%'s and 20%'s

 

[noblok]

(1962*20% + 1471*10%)/(1962+1471) =

(39240% + 14710%) / 3433 =

15,7151179% (it goes on, don't know how exact you need it.)

No its not 15% because there isnt the same amount of 10%'s and 20%'s

Ah yeah, right right...

Umm...could it be that you add the numbers, then count how many percent is 10% and how many is 20% then get the average of those?

Like if 2/10 are 10% and 8/10 are 20%, it's;

10% = 20%
20% = 80%

And the average is 50%

Just spitballing here...probably not helping at all

NM, got it, its 15.71%

 

[Marc]

(1962*20% + 1471*10%)/(1962+1471) =

(39240% + 14710%) / 3433 =

15,7151179% (it goes on, don't know how exact you need it.)

Yeah, It just came to me, but thanks anyway, have a rep

The inland revenue were expecting 14% and wont budge on the extra 1.72%. They are proper WANKERS
