This study presents one universal mean formula of implicate quantity for speed, temperature, consistency, density, unit cost, and the national income per person in order to avoid the inconvenience of applying different formulas for each one of them. This work is done by using the principle of lever and was led to the formula of two implicate quantity, $M=\frac{x_1f_1+x_2f_2}{f_1+f_2}$, and to help the understanding of relationships in this formula. The value of ratio of fraction cannot be added but it shows that it can be calculated depending on the size of the ratio. It is intended to solve multiple additions with one formula which is the expansion of the mean formula of implicate quantity. $M=\frac{x_1f_1+x_2f_2+{\cdots}+x_nf_n}{N}$, where $f_1+f_2+{\cdots}+f_n=N$. For this reason, this mean formula will be able to help in physics as well as many other different fields in solving complication of structures.
