average function

When I use the average function like this =AVERAGE(B3:C3),
I get a #DIV/0! error.

B3 C3
(0.6 1.6

Any ideas?

Your values in B3 and C3 are entered as Text, which Average()
ignores. Change the format to General, then copy a blank cell,
select B3:C3 and Paste Special, selecting the Values and Add radio
buttons.
