Is there a way to calculate the average of each column only for the rows of the columns that have both numbers? For example, if A5 and B5 have numbers, they will be calculated in calculating the average of their columns, but if, for example, A5 has numbers but B5 is empty, they will not be used in calculating the average in both columns. for example, in the picture below, I only want rows 2, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15, 17 to be calculated for column A and column B.

Welcome to the forum.
Yes. Try this for column A:
=AVERAGEIFS(A1:A17,A1:A17,"<>",B1:B17,"<>")
and for column B:
=AVERAGEIFS(B1:B17,A1:A17,"<>",B1:B17,"<>")

Thank you very much, the formula is very good, I had another question, how can I expand this formula for more columns? For example, for ten columns whose rows have numbers. When I drag the formula, the second part of the formula changes, while I want that part of the formula to be fixed
Just look the lookup ranges:
=AVERAGEIFS(A1:A17,$A1:$A17,"<>",$B1:$B17,"<>")
Glad to have helped.
