Calculating mean/average in form

Good morning!

I am working on converting paper assessments into a digital form that can be used online. At the end of the assessment, the teacher circles a number in 4 categories. They then add the numbers and find the mean.

I've set my form up to have 4 groups of radial buttons, labeled Choice1, Choice2, Choice3, Choice4, Choice5. How would I calculate the mean of those 4 groups? Does anyone know a JavaScript formula or is there a way to do it in the form?

Thanks in advance.

There's a built-in command for calculating the average in the Calculate tab. You just need to apply numeric values as the "Radio Button Choice" property of each field and it should work. If not it can be done using a relatively simple script.
