average of several cells excluding the minimum
Try something like this:
For values in A1:A10 If there may be more than one value matching the MINIMUM value and you only want to exclude one of them: =(SUM(A1:A10)-MIN(A1:A10))/(COUNT(A1:A10)-1) (easiest) or =AVERAGE(IF((A1:A10+1/ROW(A1:A10))MIN((A1:A10)+1/ROW(A1:A10)),A1:A10)) Note: Commit that array formula by holding down the [Ctrl][Shift] keys and press [Enter]. Alternatively, if there will only be one instance of the minimum value or you want to exclude all values that match the minimum: =AVERAGE(IF(A1:A10MIN(A1:A10),A1:A10)) Note: Commit that array formula by holding down the [Ctrl][Shift] keys and press [Enter]. Does that help? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP-Pro "Ashley32" wrote: how do i take the average of several cells in microsoft excell EXCLUDING the minmum value? what function do i sue? |
