Sorry, newbie here. I've been looking around (probably not hard enough) for the most appropriate formula with the AVERAGEIF function to work with filtered/visible cells only.

These are the two formula i am using atm which is working perfectly fine to show all data. But not when i filter out certain criteria because it keeps recognizing all cell within the table. Screenshot also attached.
=IFERROR(AVERAGEIF(AA:AA,"P",AD:AD),"")
and
=IFERROR(AVERAGEIF(AA:AA,"P",AE:AE),"")

I am truly sorry if this post have been made many times before me. I have tried a bunch of different solution from here & reddit and maybe I'm inputting something wrong but nothing seems to work for me yet.

Excel Facts

Excel motto
Not everything I do at work revolves around Excel. Only the fun parts.
Unfortunately post #11 does not answer any of the 3 questions asked in post #10. :(

So, I will assume these answers
It looks like your image shows a formal Excel table at the left with only about 20 rows. Is that the case?
Yes, it is a formal table

If so, what is the name of the table?
Table1

What columns does the entire table occupy?
Columns B:H

IF
those assumptions are correct then could you use this method?

Add a new column to the table as shown below. This column can then be hidden if you want.
Use the average formulas shown in row 4

The table name is just called "Data" and Yes i believe just a normal table using Ctrl T and pressing enter.
I have tried your method, although it is what i believe you think I am trying to achieve but it is not. I blame myself for not explaining it clear enough. My apologies, English isn't my first language. Ill try my best to explain this again the best I can.

I am just after a formula to input in cell G4 to calculate the average from "Difference1" to only averageIF it contains the letter "P" from "Pass or Fail" column. Atm my formula and your updated one already does that, but as soon as I use the filter to hide certain value. The 5.89 should also change. But in this case, it remains 5.89. With the screenshot also attached, G4 value should now be showing 1.46 just averaging up G14 and G22, excluding G9 because it doesn't contain the "P" from "Pass or Fail".

I really hope this makes sense now. My apologies for the bad interpretation and i do appreciate your time and effort on trying to resolve this. Thank you very much Peter

In your XL2BB mini sheet in post #14, the 'Vis' column in the table appears to just contain hard-coded 1.00 values. It should contain the formula =SUBTOTAL(3,[@[Pass or Fail]]) as per the mini sheet in post #13

Yes! this works. Thank you very much sir you are the greatest 🙏 I didn't notice the formula for I6. I am curious though, is there a method to not use the extra Vis column? If not how do you hide the extra column?
