the following numbers 12,0,14,25,0,9

Average Of Every Other Cell Excluding Zeros?

May 9, 2013

I current have an Excel doc that I am trying to pull averages from. Every row has data that needs to be averaged but I only need every other cell. And I cannot have zeros in the average because it will skew the data. Also if the average for a row ends up being 0, I want that average to show up as 0 not #DIV/0!. From Column H to EE I need to average each row individually.

I came up with the below formula.

=IF(SUM(H1:H1:J1:J1:L1:L1)=0, "0", AVERAGEIF(H1:H1:J1:J1:L1:L1, ">0")

It works but Its not practical because I have to manually enter all of the cells that it pulls from.

Calculating An Average But Excluding Boxes With Text

Sep 25, 2009

I'm trying to get excel to calculate the average time spent on appointments by officers in a small team. Each of them sees people each day, and as we're very busy I'm eager to get the time spent on each appointment down, by giving them a target of the number of people to see each day. At the moment we gather some stats on this, which show how many people are being seen by each officer.

The attached example sheet shows for one week a list of columns with officer's initials at the top, and says how many people were seen by each person each day during that week and then a how many people overall for the week.

I'd like to be able to generate statistics on the amount of time each officer has spent on average with customers, and base this on the fact that people have 360 minutes per day (they do 6 hours of appointments and another hour for admin) to see people.

I think the spreadsheet attached gives a good idea of the system and what I want to do.

Excluding Zeros From Count

Jan 30, 2014

I have pivot table that is pulling data from a page that is using the vlookup formula. I would like the table to only include fields that have data in the count. However, the pivot table is registering cells that have "0" (i.e., there's no actual data in the cell it is pull from) as having data. How can I get the pivot table count to ignore these cells?

Averaging But Excluding Zeros

May 18, 2009

I have a list of numbers that I want to average. Problem is, some of the numbers contain zeros and i want to exclude these entries.

So, if I had a list of 6 values and 3 were zero, I'd want to sum the list and divide it by 3 (not 6).

Showing Minimum Value Of Two Isolated Cells Excluding Zeros

Jun 29, 2012

I have the following formula which works perfectly unless one of the cells has a value of zero;

=MIN(SUM(AD13),MIN(SUM(AK13)))

When AD13 = £60.00 and AK13 = £94.00 (or vice versa) the formula returns £60.00, which is correct. BUT when AK13 = £0.00 obviously the formula returns £0.00, but I would like the formula to still return £60.00.

How this can be done?

Calculating Ratios With Zeros In Some Cells?

Jun 30, 2014

I am calculating ratios to show as 1:0 or 3:2 etc using this formula: =IFERROR(CONCATENATE((K2/GCD(K2,N2)),":",((N2/GCD(K2,N2)))),"Nil")... I have a lot of columns that have zeros in them and the formula i am using doesn't seem to work for those...

Example

A B
3 6 should equal: 1:2 works OK
2 0 should equal: 2:0 my current result: 1:0
3 0 should equal: 3:0 my current result: 1:0
0 1 should equal: 0:1 works OK
0 0 should equal: Nil works OK
4 1 should equal: 4:1 works OK

Anything with a zero in the first column comes up as 1:0

Weighted Average Excluding High/Low

Jan 6, 2009

I'm trying to calculate a weighted average excluding the top and bottom value, and am having trouble creating a formula that can be dragged across.

my values are in E2:L17, and the weights are in M2:M17. Basically I want a weighted average of each column, using M2:M17 as the weights.

I'm sure someone's done something like this before, care to assist?

Example:

Data: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Weights: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Weighted avg ex hi/lo: (2x4+3x4+4x6)/3 = 44/3

How Do I Get An Average Without Including The Zeros

Jan 27, 2006

I am using a formula to include all values greater than zero in my average which has worked fine until i tried to extend the parameters, then it gives me the Value? sign. Does anyone know another way to accomplish what i want?

here is what i am using now.
=average(if(BZ28:CM28<>0, BZ28:CM28, " "))

i was trying to make the CM extend to CS, but for some reason it is not working.

Anyway, i figure a different equation might be better than what i
have and solve my problem.

Average Of Cells With Zeros

Aug 8, 2007

I want to take an average of only non-zero numbers in a range of cells containing a few zeros. I know there is a function to do this, but I haven't been able to find it. With the normal average() function, the denominator is too large as cells with 0 are included.

Average While Ignoring Zeros And Errors?

Feb 14, 2013

I'm trying to return the average, min and max values of a range that will have errors, be blank or have zeros. I have already found an array formula that works getting rid of the errors but the zeros are now a problem.

{=AVERAGE(IF(NOT(ISERROR(D27:G27)),D27:G27))}

I was thinking that an OR might be needed but for the life of me can't figure out where it belongs. I will also be using this formula with both MIN and MAX in the adjacent cells so it would be great if all I have to do is swap those in for AVERAGE. I'm not keen on how array formulas work, just found an example similar to this on the interwebs, and I'm curious why if the array brackets are removed the value returned is 0 and not an error.

Workbook is proprietary so VB is locked and not an option (not sure if it was but wanted to be clear).

Rolling Average That Excludes Zeros

Dec 7, 2006

I've got a worksheet that has chronological quarterly data for which I'd like to do a 5-year rolling average. The layout is: Column A = Dates, Column B = Values, and Column C = 5-year Rolling Average. My problem is that I want to exclude zero-values from the averaging calculation. I tried the following:


={AVERAGE(IF(B1,B5,B9,B13,B170,B1,B5,B9,B13,B17))}

However, Excel will not accept this formula (I assume an array must be contiguous? Please let me know if that's correct).

Average & Count Zeros But Not Blanks

Apr 19, 2006

I am trying to make a excell spread sheet that will calculate my students averages for the year. I need to account for zeros in the coarse and I want this excel sheet to track the current average all year long . So I do not need to include my blanks in the average as I go. Also , how do I formulate my average accum to show this formula - Test scores, four of them count as 80% of the total grade. So each test is worth 20% / Lab 10% of total grade and homework is additional 10%. I downloaded the templete from MSN and have tweaked it to my liking except for the coding above. Please advise. I am a below par on Excel. My attachemtn is below of my templete. One note. the templete gave me the room to include 13 ros of homework - but I will not necessarily use all of them... I can make it one row for home work only ....

Sum & Average Including Zeros But Not Blanks

Aug 14, 2007

Attached is an xls with my formulas and problem. We need a way to factor in zeros in grading student workers. However, we also need a way to omit blank or null cells if the workers did not do a particular project. The formulas currently in the sheet compute zeros for both scenarios, lowering the overall 'grade' for workers who didn't do a project compared with workers who did the project but got a '0'

Average Omitting Blanks / Zeros

Feb 12, 2008

I have run into a problem with the array formula. After inserting formula with the CTRL+SHFT+Enter it is giving me the same sum to the 3 cells that I had array formulas in but trying to capture different data from what was in the capturing column. Example:

If row F consists of text types: Move-in, Mid Year, and Year End as potential options,and row G is the score for that text type(cells will consist percentages), give me the average of all the cells in row G that are specific to Move-In only, but don't include the blanks in the average.

My existing formula isn't designated to exclude the blanks. how to exclude blanks and how to get it to stop giving me the same result in the three separate cells. My current formula is as such: {=AVERAGE(IF(F2:F73=E76, H2:H73))}

Average Function That Excludes Zeros

May 10, 2008

I am working with averages of ACT scores and Class rank percentages. I cannot figure out how to exclude all the zeros and/or DNR (do not rank) values that are in those columns. For example if I have 10 items, and 2 are DNR, the I want to exclude the 2 DNR's in my average. I tried putting it in the Row or Column area and unchecking what I wanted to exclude and then drag it into the data area, but that didn't work either.

Average Skipping Cells AND Not Counting Zeros?

Oct 31, 2012

Here are my cells and values

1.95
16
1.73
21
0.00
None
20.10
20
1.73
20
0.00
None

What I would like to do is average only every other cell AND also not count zeros. So =average(B38,D38,F38,J38,L38) generally the idea not averaging H38 & N38 since they are both zeros.

Get Average But Exclude Zeros AND Hidden Rows?

Aug 15, 2013

excluding zeros and for excluding hidden rows, but can't seem to find a way to do both at the same time, which is what I need to do.

My company has projects that come and go (and are hidden when they are gone) and at times, those projects return 0s because we do not work on them for a short period... so, when I average a column, I need to exclude both situations.

I am averaging hours worked and the hours are found in cells:

B2, D2, F2, H2, J2, L2, N2

Some of these cells contain zeros at this time and I do not what to include the zeros in the average.

I have found formulas that would work but they are all with continuous cell ranges.
