how to calculate average value in a row ignoring values below "x"

[Guest]

i am trying to calculate the average of a column for values above 25000 using
following formula : =average(if(c8:c100>25000,c8:c100,"")) but can't get it
working - any good ideas ? - thanks !!

Try:

=SUMIF(C8:C100,">25000") / COUNTIF(C8:C100,">25000")

=AVERAGE(IF(C8:C100>25000,C8:C100))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
Excel will automatically enclose the formula in braces (curly brackets), do
not try to do this manually.
When editing the formula, it must again be array-entered.

=average(if(c8:c100>25000,c8:c100))

Enter with Ctrl+Shift+Enter rather than Enter
