I need to fill the nulls of a column with the mean sum of the division of two columns multiplied by one column and rest the previous An example would be

A B_01 B_02 ... B_60
5  .    .
5  2    3
7  3   1,2
9  3   0,3
4  .    .

Well, I would like the missing value for column B_01 to be (2/5 + 3/7 + 3/9) / 3 * its corresponding column A For column B_02(3/5 + 1,2/7 + 0,3/9)/3 * its corresponding column A - his new value in B_01

I have thought about doing this, but it turns out that I have 60 columns with which to do it and the only way it comes to mi mind is to do this 60 times.

thanks

Proc sql;
  create table new as
  Select *
  , sum(B_01/A)/sum(case when B_01 is missimg then . else 1)*A end as new_B_01
  , sum(B_02/A)/sum(case when B_02 is missimg then . else 1)*A-B_01 end as new_B_02
  from table_one
  ;

Sorry but I have changed the question. Should I delete the old question?

The code I gave in my other thread should be easily modified to handle this change. Please look at the code in my other thread, then try it and finally see if you can modify it to make it handle this change.
