The sum of the 'Total' column for all applicable rows
In this example 899,119 is the direct sum of the three figures for the Daily Mirror. Ie. 878,269 + 557 + 20,293 = 899,199
The 1,804,943 figure is the sum of the 899,199 plus the 905,824 which is the sum of the other grouping.
The 'Simple sum' above divided by the number of applicable rows
In this example 299,706 is the sum of the three figures for the Daily Mirror divided by the number of figures (3).
Ie. (878,269 + 557 + 20,293)/3 = 299,706
The 'Total' in each row multiplied by the 'No Issues' in each row, then all rows summed.
In this example 22,477,975 is calculated by summing the number of issues times the total for each of the three rows.
ie. (25 x 878,269) + (25 x 557) + (25 x 20,293) = 22,477,975
The 'Total' in each row multiplied by the 'No Issues' in each row, then all rows summed, then divided by the sum of all 'No Issues' column.
In this example 300,801 is result of each rows total multiplied by the number of issues, summed and then divided by the total number of issues.
Ie. (25 x 878,269) + (25 x 557) + (25 x 20,293) + (24 x 884,135) + (24 x 927) + (24 x 20,762) = 44,217,151 / (25 + 25 +25 +24 +24 +24) = 300,801.
