How can I get the average cycle (days) when calculating two date columns?

Hello,

How can I get the average cycle in days, given the table dates below?

Start DateEnd Date
06/12/202307/10/2023
05/01/2023 
01/01/202305/30/2023
02/02/2023 

 

I guess that if there is no End Date, then there should be no calculation.

Appreciate your help in this begginer question.

Hi @antoniosantos 
Try measure :

avg cicle = CALCULATE(AVERAGEX('Table',DATEDIFF('Table'[Start Date],'Table'[End Date],DAY)),'Table'[End Date]<>blank())
