I have a sheet the pulls data from records to calculate the average length of time different actions we track take to happen.
The problem is this sometimes results in nice neat numbers with no or only a few decimal places and sometimes results in irrational numbers showing 9 decimal places.

I don't want trailing zeros after my whole numbers since it's not currency. Is there any way to format the cells to only show decimal places if they actually exist without using formulas (my formulas are long enough already) or conditional formatting?
