    Your question and your data structure is not clear. We cannot look inside your head. Please provide more detail, i.e. upload a workbook with some sample data and mock up the expected result.

    cheers,

    This is a very bad data layout. There are several numeric values, together with text in any one cell, so the whole cell content is text.

    Consider arranging your data so that each value occupies a single cell.
