(3 × $1.20 + $4.00) ÷ 4 = $1.90/1M — the $/1M figure blends input and output at 3:1 — that is the only way models with two different rates can be ranked on one axis. Your actual rate depends on your own input:output mix — input only $1.20, 3:1 $1.90, 1:1 $2.60, output only $4.00 per 1M.

The board shows this model's cheapest measured offer ($1.90/1M); the smaller figure under it is the mean of the 2 offers listed below ($1.90/1M). Add those up and divide — it matches.
