15. Use Excel’s functions
 You can easily calculate the sum of a large number of
cells by using a function.
 A function is a predefined, or built-in, formula for a
commonly used calculation.
 Each Excel function has a name and syntax.
 The syntax specifies the order in which you must enter the
different parts of the function and the location in which
you must insert commas, parentheses, and other
punctuation
 Arguments are numbers, text, or cell references used by
the function to calculate a value
 Some arguments are optional

16. Excel Formulas
 You must have an equals sign ( = ) as the first character
in a cell that contains a formula.
 The = sign tells excel that the contents of the cell is a
formula
 Without the = sign, the formula will not calculate
anything. It will simply display the text of the formula.

17. Function Example Description
 SUM =SUM(A1:A100)
 AVERAGE =AVERAGE(B1:B10)
 MAX =MAX(C1:C100)
 MIN =MIN(D1:D100)
 SQRT =SQRT(D10)
 TODAY =TODAY()
 Count =count(A13:A34)
 Per% =A1/B1*100

18. It automatically enters a SUM function in
the selected cell. The SUM function totals
one or more numbers in a range of cells.
Select the blank cell in the row below the
Click the AutoSum command on the
Ribbon's Home tab, or use the keyboard
shortcut: Alt + =
SUM function

19. Just enter the formula =Max (D5:D12) or
=Min(D5:D12) in a blank cell, and then
press Enter key to get the largest or
smallest number in the range, see
screenshot: Note: The Max function
and Min function can only find out the
highest or lowest value, but not select the
value in ranges.
Max & Min

20.  First: work out the difference
(increase) between the two numbers
you are comparing.
 Increase = New Number - Original
Number.
 Then: divide the increase by the
original number and multiply the
answer by 100.
 % increase = Increase ÷ Original
Number × 100.
Percentage

21. If Function
 The IF function checks whether a condition is met, and returns one value
if TRUE and another value if FALSE.
 Select cell C1 and enter the following function.
 The IF function returns Correct because the value in cell A1 is higher
than 10.
Logical Functions

22. And Function
 The AND Function returns TRUE if all conditions are true and returns
FALSE if any of the conditions are false.
 Select cell D1 and enter the following formula.
 The AND function returns FALSE because the value in cell B1 is not higher
than 5. As a result the IF function returns Incorrect.

23. Or Function
 The OR function returns TRUE if any of the conditions are TRUE and returns
FALSE if all conditions are false.
 Select cell E1 and enter the following formula.
 The OR function returns TRUE because the value in cell A1 is higher than 10. As
a result the IF function returns Correct.

24. What to Print
Instead of printing the entire
worksheet, you can also only print the
current selection.
1. First, select the range of cells you
want to print.
2. Next, under Settings, select Print
Selection.
3. To print the selection, click the big
Print button.
Note: you can also print the active
sheets (first select the sheets by
holding down CTRL and clicking the
sheet tabs) or print the entire
workbook. Use the boxes next to Pages
(see first screenshot) to only print a
few pages of your document. For
example, 2 to 2 only prints the second
page.
