Hi Guys,
I am new to Power Bi and need help with creating a column which should do an average of other 4 columns for every row.
Attaching a screenshot for reference:
So, basically want to create a new column - let's call it Average.
So, Average = average of (0.6686+0.66+0.6616+0.6664) //taking example of 2nd row
Please help me how can I achieve this using Power query. Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @SJHALANI , you can add this column Power Query in the "Add column" tab and then "Custom Column" like so:
In the pop-up window you can add the following code:
( [field_16] + [field_17] + [field_18] + [field_19] ) / 4
Hope this answer solves your problem!
If you need any additional help please @ me in your reply.
If my reply provided you with a solution, please consider marking it as a solution ✔️ or giving it a kudoe 👍

Hi @SJHALANI ,
The answer provided by @goncalogeraldes will work for the most part.
However, I would recommend using List.Average instead as this will correctly handle null values if they occur in your columns:
List.Average( { [field_16], [field_17], [field_18], [field_19] } )
