Excluding Text when using ArrayFormula for Average in Spreadsheet
I am trying to create a google form to track a student's GPA. We have 4 classes and I used this formula
=ArrayFormula( (D2:D+E2:E+F2:F+G2:G) / 4 )The problem that I have is that some students do not take 4 courses. I used N/A is an option on the google form for this instance. The ArrayFormula will not exclude N/A when calculating the average. I need a formula to ignore the N/A and divide by the appropriate number of numerical responses in these circumstances. I hope that this makes sense. I included the link and it should be editable. I appreciate the help!
