This is a classic scenario where you can leverage Level of Detail expressions in Tableau
read here: https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/calculations_calculatedfields_lod_overview.htm
Your expressions would emerge like : AVG([{FIXED [Segment]], [Category]] : SUM([Sales]])}])
You will have greater control over row-level operations using LoD
Please read the link and try it
