Considerations when using the AVERAGE?
If there are no rows to aggregate, the function returns a blank. But if there are rows but none of them meets the specified criteria, the function returns 0.
If you want to find the average of an expression that evaluates to a set of numbers, use the AVERAGEX function instead.
