select 'q1' as q, avg(q1) avrg from yourtable

union all

select 'q3', avg (q3) from yourtable

Answer 2

One method is a simple union all:

select 'q1' as q, avg(q1) as average from t
union all
select 'q2' as q, avg(q2) as average from t
union all
select 'q3' as q, avg(q3) as average from t;

Answer 3

Select q 
      ,AVG(CAST(Vals AS DECIMAL(10,2))) Average
from tableName  
  UNPIVOT (vals for q in (q1,q2,q3))up
Group by q

or to get two decimal places

Select q 
      ,CAST(AVG(CAST(Vals AS DECIMAL(10,2)) )AS DECIMAL(10,2)) Average
from @t 
  UNPIVOT (vals for q in (q1,q2,q3))up
Group by q
