Solved

Hello everyone
I would like to automatically calculate a "cumulative" average of numbers from several cells.
Let me explain:
if I have 2 cells, I want to calculate the average and write it in another cell (so far, I managed to do that)
if I have 3 cells, I want to calculate the average and write it in another cell (different from the one above)
etc...
Of course, I could write the average formula by adding each new cell address, but after a certain number it becomes tedious.
Is there a way to write a formula that can automatically increment a new cell to the previous ones and calculate the new average using the handle at the bottom right?
I am not sure this exists and I am asking just in case.
Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hello
    what exactly is your problem?
    because if we take that literally, to adapt
    your value list starts in A2 in B2 the formula:
    =AVERAGE($B$2:B2) dragged down will give you the average of the values from the 1st row to the row where it is located
    provided that you place the $ signs correctly on the 1st B2 so that it remains fixed and not on the second one so that it evolves when dragging
    best regards,

    The quality of the response mainly depends on the clarity of the question, thank you!
