Calcula la media, la suma, el conteo y el rango de una lista de números, al instante en tu navegador.
What is a Calculadora de Promedio (Media)?
The plain arithmetic mean of a data set — add everything up, divide by how many numbers there are — for a quick sanity check on a set of test scores, monthly expenses, or survey ratings, without opening a spreadsheet just to run =AVERAGE().
How to use the Calculadora de Promedio (Media)
- Paste a list of numbers, separated by commas or one per line
- Press Calculate
- The mean, sum, count, and range appear instantly, computed on your device
Formula
Mean = (Sum of all values) ÷ (Number of values)
Every value counts equally — there's no weighting by anything else, unlike GPA's credit-weighted average.
Example
Six quiz scores — 72, 85, 90, 68, 77, 95 — average out to 81.17, with a 68–95 range showing roughly a 27-point spread between the lowest and highest score.
Common mistakes
- Calling the mean "the average" and expecting it to match the median on data with outliers — they diverge on skewed data.
- Leaving a stray label, unit symbol (like "$" or "kg"), or extra comma in the pasted list, which breaks parsing.
- Pasting numbers formatted with thousands separators (1,000) that get misread as two separate numbers.
- Assuming the mean always falls near the middle of the range — a single extreme value can pull it well off-center.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between mean, median, and mode?
Mean is the sum divided by the count (what this tool calculates). Median is the middle value once sorted. Mode is the most frequently occurring value. They can differ significantly on skewed data — see Median Calculator for when median is the better choice.
Is there a limit to how many numbers I can enter?
No hard limit — it's parsed and averaged entirely in your browser, so practical limits are just how much you can comfortably paste into the box, not a server-imposed cap.
What separators can I use between numbers?
Commas, newlines, or a mix of both — paste a column copied from a spreadsheet (newline-separated) or a comma-separated list, and it parses either.
How is a weighted average different from this?
A weighted average gives some values more influence than others (like GPA's credit-hour weighting) — this tool treats every number equally, which is the right choice unless you have a specific reason to weight some values more.
Is my numbers uploaded anywhere?
No — Calculadora de Promedio (Media) runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript/WebAssembly. Your numbers is never sent to a server.
