Default Average Time

How do I go about averaging the following?
Cell A1 = 3 min. 3 sec.
Cell A2 = 1 min. 13 sec.

What formula would I use to average the two?

ANY help would be greatly appreciated, Karen

Default Average Time

Enter the values as real times in A1 and A2
0:03:03
0:01:13

and use a formula like:
=average(a1:a2)

and give it a nice format
[mm]:ss
????

Thank you very much for your help. Is there a formula to convert the value -
Example: 02:08 into 2 min. 8 sec. in another cell so the average is easier to
read?
Thank you, Karen

You could keep it in the same cell and give that cell a custom format of:

mm "min" ss "sec"
(format|cells|number tab|custom category)
