The result is 60, since (90+90+0)/ 3 = 60. To filter out the zero from the calculated average, the formula in E6 uses the AVERAGEIF function like this: The criteria supplied is “<>0”, which means “not equal to zero”.
Blank data values
The AVERAGE, AVERAGEIF, and AVERAGEIFS function all automatically ignore blank cells (and cells that contain text values), so there is no need to provide criteria to filter out empty cells.
