Nick,

For the weekend average,

=SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)>5)*B1:B365)/SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)>5)*1)

For the weekday average
=SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)<6)*B1:B365)/SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)<6)*1)

HTH,

Try, array-entered, i.e. press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER:

For weekdays:
=AVERAGE(IF(WEEKDAY(A1:A8,2)={1,2,3,4,5},B1:B8))

For weekends:
=AVERAGE(IF(WEEKDAY(A1:A8,2)={6,7},B1:B8))

Adapt the ranges to suit ..

hey Max,

Greeting from Wessex

The best part is that you used the ,2 argument to make the list simpler, but
stopped one step short

=AVERAGE(IF(WEEKDAY(A1:A8,2)={1,2,3,4,5},B1:B8))

which I think is as previous.

Be content in that the concept was the best though <g>

I like this answer best Max, but haven't we been here before

Yes (scratch-scratch) I vaguely recollect .. the conditional formatting

that 1 week = 7 days only, Bob ! Cheers.

Nick,

For the weekend average,

=SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)>5)*B1:B365)/SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)>5)*1)

For the weekday average
=SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)<6)*B1:B365)/SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365,2)<6)*1)

I'm trying to average a column of numbers based on the day of the week.
Col A has the sequential days of the month, Col B has a number for each day.
I want to average all the numbers in Col B that are based on a weekday or
weekend.
