Default truncating data within a cell for an entire column

Hi,
I have a numeric value in a cell that is followed by a space and then three
alphanumeric characters e.g., -24 dBm. How can I delete the alphanumeric
chracters and preserve the nummeric charaters so that I can apply the average
function to the entire column?
Thanks,
vlapi
