What is the definition of

AverageIF in Excel?
It returns the average

(arithmetic mean)
of all the cells in a range

that meet a given criteria.
Syntax: AVERAGEIF(range,
criteria, [average_range])
The AVERAGEIF function syntax

has the following arguments:
Range: One or more cells to

average, including numbers
or names, arrays, or
references that contain
numbers.
Criteria: The criteria in the form

of a number, expression, cell
reference, or text
that defines which cells are

averaged. For example,
criteria can be expressed as 32,

"32", ">32", "apples", or B4.
Average range : The actual set

of cells to average. If omitted,
range is used.
If no cells in the range meet the

criteria, AVERAGEIF returns the
#DIV/0! error value.
The AVERAGEIF function

measures central tendency,
which is the location of the

center of a group of numbers in
a statistical distribution.
The three most common

measures of central tendency
are:
Average: which is the arithmetic

mean, and is calculated by
adding a group of numbers
and then dividing by the

count of those numbers.
For example, the average of 2, 3,

3, 5, 7, and 10 is 30 divided by 6,
which is 5.
Median: Which is the middle

number of a group of numbers;
that is, half the numbers have

values that are greater than the
median,
and half the numbers have

values that are less than the
median.
For example, the median of

2, 3, 3, 5, 7, and 10 is 4.
Mode: Which is the most

frequently occurring number in
a group of numbers.
For example, the mode of

2, 3, 3, 5, 7, and 10 is 3.
