How to average without zero and by different category

Hi all,


I need help with this for a survey which I have conducted. 

 

I have this set of survey which I am trying to find the average hours/ people without zero:

I tried using this:

Avg hours without zeros = CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[Hours Per Month]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Hours Per Month]<>0))
BUT it only works if I am breaking down my visual using sub-task, but not with the category.


What I hope to get:

1. Average hours per person in each place by category, with the tasks as legend.

2. Average hours per person in each place by task, with the sub-tasks as legend.

and 3. Average must exclude the people who input 0 for that category, task or sub-task (to remove the outliners)

 

I am getting myself all confused after reading all the posts. Any help will be much appreciated.

 

Thank you so much~

Hi, @byWing 

 

You can try the following methods.

Measure = 
Var _table=FILTER('Table',[Hours per month]<>0)
Return
AVERAGEX(_table,[Hours per month])

Is this the result you expect? If not, please provide more sample output.
