Average over autofilter results
 

I found out instead of using the sum(), I should use the Subtotal() to get
the proper value of a summation over an autofilter result.

That said, I need to get the average of a column which has an autofilter
applied, which function should I use to do this?

Thank you,

After some reading, I found out that the first input variable for the
SubTotal() control what type of value is returned (1- average, 9-sum). So
the one function does it all!

use function 101 in your subtotal for average not including hidden rows. So,
=SUBTOTAL(101,A2:A500)

If you type =SUBTOTAL(, thin click the Fx button in your address bar, you
can click the "Help on this function" hyperlink for more options.

The same, SUBTOTAL. You just need to change the function number to either 1
or 101. The function number controls what type of operation you are
performing. Whereas
=SUBTOTAL(9,A:A)
means to sum,
=SUBTOTAL(1,A:A)
means to average.

See the XL help file for further details.

Please keep in mind, option 1 is going to average hidden rows. 101 ignores
hidden rows.
