week average on missing values

Hi, I have a Table with Missing values on weekends and holidays,
I need to populate missing values with the weekly average.
I have used Simple Formula 

IF(
    ISBLANK(sales[KPMR]),
    AVERAGE(sales[KPMR]),
    sales[KPMR]
   )

but the average is for the whole period, not the row week I need. I have a similar dataset written down.


dateWeekdayweek numValues (KPMR)
10/11/2020742 
10/12/202014211
10/13/202024284
10/14/202034242
10/15/202044295
10/16/202054242
10/17/2020642 
10/18/2020743 
10/19/202014318
10/20/202024324
10/21/202034317
10/22/202044347
10/23/202054382
10/24/2020643 
10/25/2020744 


how can I Populate missing values based on the weekly average or monthly average?
I have multiple rows per day (let's say transactions), but the Value (KPMR) will be the same.

@bazari , you might want to achieve your goal in Power Query,

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("bc9BDoUgDIThq7ywNpEORfAsxvtfQ9BMzcS3oJuPJv2PI1lezVZk5LSkNp5jjF86l8dAM5pZYCGC2D3QiYU4BrESnbjXwI1Y/2w24vY9tktIEdslZJp1IrKETESEwCTk3myBkJD7x4tFQib2CIFLiByLKiH+2HkB", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [date = _t, Weekday = _t, #"week num" = _t, #"Values (KPMR)" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"date", type date}, {"Weekday", Int64.Type}, {"week num", Int64.Type}, {"Values (KPMR)", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.RemoveColumns(Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"week num"}, {{"ar", each _, type table [date=nullable date, Weekday=nullable number, week num=nullable number, #"Values (KPMR)"=nullable number]}}), {"week num"}),
    Population = Table.TransformColumns(
        #"Grouped Rows", 
        {"ar", 
        each let kpmr = [#"Values (KPMR)"], avg = List.Sum(kpmr)/List.NonNullCount(kpmr) in Table.ReplaceValue(
            _, null, avg, Replacer.ReplaceValue, {"Values (KPMR)"}
        )}
    ),
    #"Expanded ar" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Population, "ar", {"date", "Weekday", "week num", "Values (KPMR)"}, {"date", "Weekday", "week num", "Values (KPMR)"})
in
    #"Expanded ar"

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!

So, no Simple DAX can resolve that? that's the quite complicated solution. I Have to apply that on 3 million rows, so i think it will be quite slow.?
