"weighted average fare" "Μεσοσταθμικός" or "μέσος σταθμικός" is "weighted average". Το "μέσο κόμιστρο" is "average fare" which is the outcome of a different calculation.
Dylan Edwards (asker) Sep 26, 2009:
"passenger fare" perhaps? - to put it in simple language. But is μεσοσταθμικό really nothing more than "average"? A few lines higher up the same page, there's "Το επιβατικό μέσο κόμιστρο προβλέπεται να φθάσει τις 17,5 δρχ. ανά επιβατοχιλιόμετρο."
