Averaging the last 5 entries in a row

I have 20 numbers in a row (G34:Z34) I would like to average the last 5
entries. So if I have 10 entries (G34:P34),I would only like to average
(L34:P34) Which is the last 5 entered and continue on averaging the last 5
all the way to (Z34).

If there are no blank cells in-between you can use

=AVERAGE(OFFSET($G$34,,COUNT($G$34:$Z$34)-1,,-5))

One way:

=AVERAGE(OFFSET(G34,0,COUNTA(G34:Z34)-5,1,5))

Geo,

In cell Q34, add the formula "=average(L34:P34)". Then copy that formula
across the range R34:Z34.
