Default weighted average - 1 column

Julia,

A 'weighted' average implies that some of your data is weighted differently from the rest - it is
more or less important (think "homework is worth 25% and tests are worth 75% of your final grade" as
a common example).

So, you need to set a relative wighting system, or have some other logic, so compute a weighted
average.

HTH,

find the answer.
I have 1 column of random data/values (below) and would like to calculate
weighted average. Please help me to compile a formula for this. Thank you!
