Formulas:
SUM :
=SUM(CELL1,CELL2,......)
EXAMPLE :
=SUM(B2:G2) –> A simple selection that sums the values of a row.
=SUM(A2:A9) – >A simple selection that sums the values of a column.
=SUM(A2:A6, A8, A11:A14) –> It sums the values from range A2 to A6, skips A7, adds A8, skips A9 and A10, then finally adds from A11 to A14.
AVERAGE :
=AVERAGE(CELL1, CELL2,......)
EXAMPLE :
=AVERAGE(B2:B12) –> Shows a simple average, also similar to (SUM(B2:B12)/10)
COUNT :
=COUNT(CELL1,CELL2,......)
EXAMPLE :
=COUNT(A:A) –> Counts all values that are numerical in A column. However, you must adjust the range inside the formula to count rows.
=COUNT(A1:C1) –> Now it can count rows.
COUNTA:
=COUNTA(CELL1,CELL2,......)
EXAMPLE :
COUNTA(C2:C13) –> Counts rows 2 to 13 in column C regardless of type. However, like COUNT, you can’t use the same formula to count rows. You must make an adjustment to the selection inside the brackets – for example, COUNTA(C2:H2) will count columns C to H.
IF:
=(logical_test, [value_if_true], [value_if_false])
EXAMPLE :
=IF(C3<D4, ‘TRUE’, ‘FALSE’) –> Checks if the value at C3 is less than the value at D4. If the logic is true, let the cell value be TRUE, else, FALSE
=IF(SUM(C2:C8) > SUM(D2:D8), SUM(C2:C8), SUM(D2:D8)) –> An example of a complex IF logic. First, it sums C2 to C8 and D2 to D8, then it compares the sum. If the sum of C2 to C8 is greater than the sum of D2 to D8, then it makes the value of a cell equal to the sum of C2 to C8. Otherwise, it makes it the SUM of C2 to C8.
AVERAGEIF: This formula returns the average of all numbers in a range of cells, on the base of given criteria in the parameter.
COUNTIF: This formula returns the number of cells in a range on the base of given criteria in the parameter.
COUNTIFS: This formula returns the number of cells in a range based on multiple criteria in the parameter.
SUMIF: This formula returns the total numbers in a range of cells on the base of given criteria in the parameter.
SUMIFS: This formula returns the total numbers in a range of cells based on multiple criteria in the parameter.
SUMPRODUCT: This formula sum multiplies the corresponding items in the arrays.
TRIM:
=TRIM(CELL)
EXAMPLE :
=TRIM(A3) –> Removes empty spaces in the value in cell A3.
MAX & MIN:
=MIN(CELL1, CELL2,......)
=MAX(CELL1, CELL2,......)
EXAMPLE :
=MIN(B2:B10) –> Finds the minimum number between B2 and B10.
=MAX(B2:B10) –> Finds the maximum number between B2 and B10.
VLOOKUP: VLOOKUP is used to get the
data for a lookup value in the leftmost column of a section of your spreadsheet
called the table array on the base index_number (column number).

INDEX: This formula gets a value from
a table on the base of a given row and column parameter.
INDIRECT: This formula returns the
