How do i find free space in my unix?

Hello, I wanted to calculate free space in my unix file system. Here is my direction. I can use df -h command to get the below output.

Code:

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
===================================================

/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data01vol
                       59G   51G  7.2G  88% /data01
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data02vol
                       59G   52G  6.9G  89% /data02
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data03vol
                       59G   52G  6.7G  89% /data03
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data04vol
                       59G   51G  7.2G  88% /data04
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data05vol
                       59G   49G  9.8G  84% /data05
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data06vol
                       59G   50G  8.9G  85% /data06
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data07vol
                       59G   53G  6.1G  90% /data07
/dev/vx/dsk/edcdg/data08vol
                       59G   52G  6.8G  89% /data08
/dev/vx/dsk/archdg/arch01vol
                       59G  489M   55G   1% /dbArch
/dev/vx/dsk/workdg/work01vol
                      176G   40G  128G  24% /work
/dev/vx/dsk/orasysdg/orasysvol1
                       51G   33G   18G  65% /orasys
/dev/vx/dsk/undodg/undovol1
                       51G  8.1G   41G  17% /undo
/dev/vx/dsk/redodg/redovol1
                       21G  820M   19G   5% /redo01
/dev/vx/dsk/redodg/redovol2
                       21G  820M   19G   5% /redo02
/dev/vx/dsk/redodg/redovol3
                       21G  820M   19G   5% /redo03

===============================================

In each file system, in the AVAIL column, i need to minus 10% and find the grand total. That will be the free space in my server..

How do i do this? I thought of moving this whole output to excel file and deduct 10% from Avail column. But i am not able to move the unix output to excel with correct format.
