For and extracting nums from text

Comment:

Hey everyone I need to know how to extract numbers from a text file. I'm a beginner with the for command and I'm not sure how to go about this. Basically this is what I have: I use the findstr command and get the line: 9001001810.110000350 Now I want to get the 350 by itself and the 1001810.11 by itself and be able to echo on the screen "Count: 350" "Average: 1001810.11". These numbers change every day but the placement is still the same so this needs to work with different numbers also. Could someone please help me? Thanks.
