I have this table and not sure as why the average is taking the 0 value cell as it should not take any cell having 0 value for average calcu, any idea.


Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
B3:E15B3=AVERAGE(IF(J3 > 0, J3), IF(O3 > 0, O3), IF(T3 > 0, T3), IF(Y3 > 0, Y3), IF(AD3 > 0, AD3), IF(AI3 > 0, AI3), IF(AN3 > 0, AN3))
F3:F15F3=C3/SUM(B3:E3)

Why can't spreadsheets drive cars? They crash too often!
the Average function does not take into account empty cell values, but if you feed it with 0s it will calculate them too.
However, in the data you presented i cannot see the actual problem.

I am using this formula and it is working perfect.
Thank you for your advice, it help me a lot.

Excel Formula:
=SUM((J3>0)*J3, (O3>0)*O3, (T3>0)*T3, (Y3>0)*Y3, (AD3>0)*AD3, (AI3>0)*AI3, (AN3>0)*AN3) / SUM((J3>0), (O3>0), (T3>0), (Y3>0), (AD3>0), (AI3>0), (AN3>0))

IF(J3 > 0, J3)
if these are values in cells rather than parts of a tedious formula you will get the expected average. And your formulas will be easier to construct and read

Are there headings in columns J:AR? If so, can you post J1:AR15 with XL2BB? There may be a simpler formula.
