About Average Percentage
The average percentage is calculated by adding all percentage values together and dividing by the number of percentages. This gives you the arithmetic mean of the percentage values.

Important Note: This calculator computes a simple average. If your percentages represent different sample sizes or have different weights, you should consider using a weighted average instead.
