Calculating weighted average when weight field depends on unit of measurement

Hello all - I am attempting to calculate a weighted average in my flow but the weight field would differ based on unit of measurement. Could anyone help me figure out how I could make this work simply?

 

See table for example of what I mean. "Value" column would be the value field. But which column was the weight field would depend on the unit of measurement (ounces or packs). 

 

Value Unit of Measurement Annual # of Packs Annual # of Ounces 
3.21Ounces 57327,698
6.37Packs 71245,896,321
6.17Packs 4,1922,541,682
7.75Packs 7,8265,498,230
1.63Ounces 3,3525,412,369
8.63Packs 125741,578
9.79Packs 5,488154,891
5.22Ounces 1412,639,871

 

Thank you!
