Maybe something like this suffices
Assume 3 identically structured source sheets, Sheet1/2/3

In your summary sheet
(which should not be placed within Sheet1-3)
In A1: =AVERAGE(Sheet1:Sheet3!A1)
Copy across/fill down as required to cover the range

OK. What is the structure? You can average a million cells if they are all
in one range. Remember, Average takes up to 30 ranges, not just cells. So if
some of your cells are together, feed them to Average as a range, rather
than separate cells.

Regards,
Fred.

And you're not willing to give us any hint how they are structured.

As a general issue,

=AVERAGE(Sheet1:Sheet2!B2:C5,Sheet3!X99:X110,Sheet Foobar!IV65536)
