When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Try this in H3 and copy down.

=INDEX(B3:G3,1,MATCH(I3,B3:G3,0)-1)

or, if you don't want to use the reference to the MIN in column I:

=INDEX(B3:G3,1,MATCH(MIN(C3,E3,G3),B3:G3,0)-1)
