Need a formula that will pick out the 6 lowest numbers in a range, then give
an average of those 6 numbers. Can anyone help?

Averaging The Lowest N Numbers In A Range
To average the N smallest numbers in a range, use the array formula

=AVERAGE(SMALL(A1:A60,ROW(INDIRECT("1:10"))))

Change "1:10" to "1:N" where N is the number of values to average.

In all of the formulas above, you can use =SUM instead of =AVERAGE to sum,
rather
than average, the numbers.
