Excel mixed data into number format


I have mixed data in my Excel sheet containing both text and numbers(in text format). How can I convert only numbers into (number format)?

The first row contains names with roll numbers (mixed) and the second contains numbers and '-' mixed. How shall I convert these numbers (in text form) into number format
