When calculating the Average value, at 1:56, it simply says:
" ... Type in the function, paste in the range, and hit Enter."
And I see him pasting some value, without selecting anything. But where did that value come from?
After I type "=average(" and then click on the range value "18:11:23" I get as a result the same thing: 'Average - 18:11:23'
Some snapshots: https://snag.gy/65wxUu.jpg https://snag.gy/mAuz2Y.jpg
Can anyone help? Where can I get that value(the range) from?

Your question has me a little confused on what you are asking... the range is the difference between the MIN and the MAX value in a collection of data, you are also showing that you are trying to Average the result of a division with 3 different values ("18:11:23"). If you are trying to find the Average between those 3 numbers then you have to separate them with "," not ":" so it would look like this "=AVERAGE(18,11,23)".
