Stuck on Formulas

I'm having a complete block with my basic formulas. I'm trying to create an
Excel formula that will total the percentages in columns E through P (which
are January-December), giving me an average of those months entered in column
R.

I don't want to have to change the formula every month to reflect the number
of months containing a number, but have something that will skip over those
month and not lower the total.

What should I be doing?

Hi Megsmom85,

If you use the AVERAGE formula and leave the months that have no percentages
so far blank the AVERAGE will not include them. As you add more numbers they
will then be used in your answer.

=AVERAGE(E2:P2)
