[QE-users] Final energy/atom calculation using SCF calculation

Dear QE users,

I am looking for a suggestion regarding the calculation of the final
energy/atom.
Is it just the total energy divided by a total number of atoms/cell as
declared in the SCF.in file.
For instance, the total energy of Si crystal comes around  -76.70988314 Ry
with 8 atoms in the unit cell after a SCF calculation. So the final
energy/atom will be -9.588 Ry.
Please help me to understand.
