Here is one way In[23]:= data = {{{1, 13}, 97.6493}, {{1, 13}, 97.9511}, {{1, 14}, 99.3002}, {{1, 14}, 99.4602}, {{1, 14}, 99.6193}, {{1, 15}, 100.513}, {{1, 15}, 101.149}, {{1, 15}, 101.483}, {{1, 15}, 101.494}, {{1, 16}, 101.51}, {{1, 16}, 101.895}}; In[24]:= {#[[1, 1]], Mean[#[[All, 2]]]} & /@ SplitBy[data, First] Out[24]= {{{1, 13}, 97.80019999999999}, {{1, 14}, 99.4599}, {{1, 15}, 101.15975}, {{1, 16}, 101.7025}}
