Considering, if you want the average of the top 7 sales and the lowest 7 sales
For highest 7 =AVERAGE(LARGE($A$2:$A$11,1),LARGE($A$2:$A$11,2),LARGE($A$2:$A$11,3),LARGE($A$2:$A$11,4),LARGE($A$2:$A$11,5),LARGE($A$2:$A$11,6),LARGE($A$2:$A$11,7)) For lowest 7 =AVERAGE(SMALL($A$2:$A$11,1),SMALL($A$2:$A$11,2),SMALL($A$2:$A$11,3),SMALL($A$2:$A$11,4),SMALL($A$2:$A$11,5),SMALL($A$2:$A$11,6),SMALL($A$2:$A$11,7)) The above formula assumes that the data is in the range A2 to A11 Let me know if this helps Regards, Andy On Sat, May 9, 2009 at 11:06 PM, Aindril De <aind...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Sabby, > > Sorry for the delay in responce.
