Hi
I am looking for a way to return the average of multiple cells using a vlookup.
This is in respect of sporting prize money. Where a competitor finishes 1st, they get a set prize in $ and I have set the Vlookup to return this figure where I input 1st as their position.
It gets complicated where more than one competitor tie. For example, where 4 players tie for 15th then the prize for each competitor is the average of the prizes for 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th.
If I was to add a column for the number of people joint in said position, is there a way to return the average of those prizes? i.e. vlookup 15th and the n cells below and return the average, where "n" is a figure that I input into a different cell.
Hoping my table will be as follows:
Competitor/Position/Number joint with/Prize
and the prize table, where the vlookup is taken from being:
Position/Prize
Thanks
