What is the formula for Mean?

x = (Σ x)/n.

What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?

Mean, Total of the values Σx, Number of values n.

How do you calculate mean?

Put the values into x = (Σ x)/n. For example, with Total of the values Σx = 60, Number of values n = 8, mean = 7.5.

Can I solve for a different value?

Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (mean, total of the values σx, number of values n) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
