Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
I'm assuming this is sample data. How many 3 column wide sections does your actual data have?
This can probably be done much easier with 365 (using LET, FILTER, and LAMBDA Functionality ) than with the functions you have in 2019.
So, knowing the scale of your question could be important in creating a scalable solution.

The data sheet is generated from google form (with 6 sections) that I have created.

Here a PowerQuery solution

Power Query:
let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    headers = List.FirstN(Table.ColumnNames(Source),3),
    data = List.Combine(Table.ToRows(Source)),
    lName = List.Alternate(data,2,1,1),
    lGender = List.Alternate(data,2,1),
    lAge = List.RemoveItems(data,lName & lGender),
    lCombined = Table.FromRows(List.Zip({lName,lAge,lGender}),headers)
in
    lCombined
