Grammar
AVERAGEIF(range, criteria, [average_range])
AVERAGEIF function syntax has the following parameters:
Range is required. One or more cells that contain a number or a name, array, or reference that contains a number to be averaged.
Criteria required. A condition in the form of a number, expression, cell reference, or text that defines the cells for which the average will be calculated. For example, the condition could be expressed as 32, "32", ">32", "apple", or B4.
Average_range is optional. The actual group of cells for which the average is calculated. If omitted, range is used.
Description
Ignore cells in the range that contain TRUE or FALSE.
If the cell in average_range is an empty cell, AVERAGEIF will ignore it.
If range is a null value or a text value, AVERAGEIF will return the error value #DIV0!.
If the cell in the condition is an empty cell, AVERAGEIF will treat it as a 0 value.
If there is no cell in the range that meets the condition, AVERAGEIF will return the error value #DIV/0!.
You can use wildcard characters, namely question mark (?) and asterisk (*), in your criteria. A question mark matches any single character; an asterisk matches any string of characters. If you want to find an actual question mark or asterisk, type a tilde (~) before the character.
Average_range does not need to have the same size and shape as range. Determine the actual cells for calculating the average by using the upper-left cell in average_range as the starting cell and then including cells that correspond to the size and shape of the range.
Example
As shown in the following figure, if you want to find the average of the numbers in all places containing the word "Korean", you can use this function, the specific formula =AVERAGEIF(B4:B13,"=*North Korea",C4:C13), the * here can represent one or more characters, in this case it represents the words "South" and "North", no Hard to get results.
