Weighted Rating System

A Weighted Rating System is a way to evaluate or rank items by giving different importance to various factors. Instead of treating all criteria equally, it assigns specific weights to each based on their significance. For example, in reviewing a restaurant, your overall score might weigh food quality more heavily than ambiance. By multiplying each criterion's score by its weight and then averaging, the system provides a balanced, fair rating that reflects what matters most. This approach ensures that the final rating accurately represents overall quality, considering the relative importance of each factor.
