Default Division on a sliding scale

Assumes names going down and questions across:
Question # 1 2 3 4 3Score
Sandy 8 5 8 5 6 6.4
=SUM(B2:G2)/COUNT(B2:G2)
Dan 5 8 5 6
Jil 1 5 8 5 6 5

Hope you can read this columns don't align very well.

I have been scratching my head for hours trying to

figure out the proper
macro/formula to use in order to do division on a

sliding scale. Here's
what I need to do:

I am creating a performance evaluation spreadsheet where

users will be
able to rate coworkers on their performance. There are

35 items that a
person is rate on, so there are 35 rows. People are

rated on a scale
from 1-8, so a perfect score would be 280 (35*8). The

total score then
(280) would be divided by 35 for their final score.

However, not all 35
items apply to everyone depending on their job position.

For some
coworkers, 12 of the 35 items will apply to them, so I

will need to
divide their score by 12, not 35. I know I can do a

formula do divide
the score by 35 (for example: =SUM(B9/35), but I need a

macro/formula
that will automatically divide the score by the number

of applicable
items (34, 33, 32, etc...). Is this possible? If anyone

knows of a
formula or macro, please tell me. I have been stumped by

this problem
for hours.

Thanks for your help in this matter.
