How to Calculate Weighted Averages for Grades in Excel

1. Type 'Grade' in cell A1, 'Weight' in B1 and 'Total Worth' in C1.
2. Type your grades in column A. For example, if you received a 95 and an 80, then type '95' in A2 and '80' in A3.
3. Type the weight each grade has in column B, next to its corresponding grade. In the example, if the first grade is worth 60% and the second grade is worth 40%, then type 60% in B2 and 40% in B3.
4. Type '=A2*B2' in cell C2. This weights the grades. Copy and paste this formula next to each grade.
5. Type '=sum(' in column C after your last grade, then highlight all the cells that have a number in coumn C and hit the 'Enter' key. The result that appears is your weighted average.
