Correct Answer

Explanation

Correct Answer Explanation:

The correct syntax is =AVERAGE(A1:A5) — starts with =, function name AVERAGE, and range in parentheses.

Why the other options are incorrect:

  • Option B: AVERAGE A1:A5 misses the = and the parentheses — treated as text.
  • Option C: =AVERAGE A1 A5 misses parentheses and uses spaces instead of colon.
  • Option D: AVG is not the correct function name — Excel uses AVERAGE (full word).
