I created a suitability model in Arcpro using the Weighted Overlay Tool for the end product.  It worked fine giving the expected results.  My resulting values are 1-15.  Are these values simply derived from the percent weight multiplied by the raster value and rounded up or down?   

My other question, what is the standard practice to imputing a layer with a restraint?  The feature is a flood plain where as I added it to the weighted overlay tool as a restraint, then I had to give it a percent weight. It's a flood plain feature that is to be considered completely unsuitable.  Giving it a percent weight doesn't make sense to me.
