Examples

To use these examples in Excel, copy the data in the table below, and paste it in cell A1 of
a new worksheet.

Data Data

apples 32

oranges 54

peaches 75

apples 86

Formula Description

=COUNTIF(A2:A5,"apples") Counts the number of cells with apples in cells A2 through A5.
The result is 2.

=COUNTIF(A2:A5,A4) Counts the number of cells with peaches (the value in A4) in
cells A2 through A5. The result is 1.

=COUNTIF(A2:A5,A2)+COUNTIF(A2:A5,A3) Counts the number of apples (the value in A2), and oranges
(the value in A3) in cells A2 through A5. The result is 3. This
formula uses COUNTIF twice to specify multiple criteria, one
criteria per expression. You could also use
the COUNTIFS function.

=COUNTIF(B2:B5,">55") Counts the number of cells with a value greater than 55 in


cells B2 through B5. The result is 2.

=COUNTIF(B2:B5,"<>"&B4) Counts the number of cells with a value not equal to 75 in


cells B2 through B5. The ampersand (&) merges the
Data Data

comparison operator for not equal to (<>) and the value in B4


to read =COUNTIF(B2:B5,"<>75"). The result is 3.

=COUNTIF(B2:B5,">=32")- Counts the number of cells with a value greater than (>) or
COUNTIF(B2:B5,"<=85") equal to (=) 32 and less than (<) or equal to (=) 85 in cells B2
through B5. The result is 1.

=COUNTIF(A2:A5,"*") Counts the number of cells containing any text in cells A2


through A5. The asterisk (*) is used as the wildcard character
to match any character. The result is 4.

=COUNTIF(A2:A5,"?????es") Counts the number of cells that have exactly 7 characters, and
end with the letters "es" in cells A2 through A5. The question
mark (?) is used as the wildcard character to match individual
characters. The result is 2.
