Try:

=SUMIF(C8:C100,"25000") / COUNTIF(C8:C100,"25000")

=AVERAGE(IF(C8:C10025000,C8:C100))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
Excel will automatically enclose the formula in braces (curly brackets), do
not try to do this manually.
When editing the formula, it must again be array-entered.

Enter with Ctrl+Shift+Enter rather than Enter
