Averaging without #DIV0!
Im using a worksheet that has a cell (C27) that totals rooms and a cell
(J28) that totals rates and a cell (J29) that is the average daily rate total, rate/total rooms. Im using the formula =AVERAGE(J28/C27). The only problem is until I actually input a number into C27 I get the #DIV/0! displayed in my ADR cell (J29). I dont always need this data so is there a way I can input the formula and not have the #DIV/0! in cell J29? Thanks, Malcolm |

Thanks, Malcolm- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - It think when you divide you already creat the average. You don't need the AVERAGE function. =IF(C27=0,0,J28/C27) =IF(iserror(J28/C27),0,J28/C27) in 2007; =IFERROR(J28.C27,0) My preference runs to the if error formulas Sig |

Hi Malcolm,
One way... =IF(ISERROR(AVERAGE(J28/C27)),"",J28/C27) Ken Hudson "Malcolm" wrote: Im using a worksheet that has a cell (C27) that totals rooms and a cell (J28) that totals rates and a cell (J29) that is the average daily rate total, rate/total rooms.

hi
vary your formula a tad =IF(c27=0,0,average(j28/c27)) thought i haven't seen the average formula used quite that way. but if c27 is zero then the above formual will put a zero in the cell instead of #DIV/0 regards FSt1 "Malcolm" wrote: Im using a worksheet that has a cell (C27) that totals rooms and a cell (J28) that totals rates and a cell (J29) that is the average daily rate total, rate/total rooms.

FSt1, Hi, again,
Once again, your on the money and your solution worked slick.

Think you don't need to use "average", and this simple IF trap which checks
the denominator cell should suffice: =IF(C27="","",J29/C27) -- Max Singapore --- "Malcolm" wrote: Im using a worksheet that has a cell (C27) that totals rooms and a cell (J28) that totals rates and a cell (J29) that is the average daily rate total, rate/total rooms.

Quote:
if you are using excel 2007, refer iserror function. it will throw empty "" when error generates. iserror(AVERAGE(J28/C27),"",AVERAGE(J28/C27)). all the best
