Sum/Count/Average only Visible Rows with SUBTOTAL Function

Hidden rows are not excluded in SUM/COUNT/AVERAGE/MAX/MIN functions; what does this mean? Your results may appear greater, distorted, etc.

How to avoid this situation? Use SUBTOTAL function…

Follow the below steps :

1. Write SUBTOTAL function

2. Specify “function_num” as 109. 101 to 111 options ignore values of rows hidden by the Hide Rows Command.

3. Complete the Formula: =SUBTOTAL(109,B2:B7)

4. Enter

If B3 & B4 are hidden rows, Then they would not be included in calculation.
