following COUNTIF function.

img2

Countifs

than 9), use the following COUNTIFS function.
img3

Sum
To sum a range of cells, use the SUM function.

img4

Sumif
To sum cells based on one criteria (for example, higher than 9), use the
following SUMIF function (two arguments).

img5
To sum cells based on one criteria (for example, green), use the following
SUMIF function (three arguments, last argument is the range to sum).

img6

Sumifs
To sum cells based on multiple criteria (for example, blue and green), use
the following SUMIFS function (first argument is the range to sum).

General note: in a similar way, you can use the AVERAGEIF and
AVERAGEIFS function to average cells based on one or multiple criteria.
2. Count Text Occurrences

This example teaches you how to count the number of occurrences of


text in a range.

1. For example, to count the number of cells that contain exactly star.

2. For example, to count the number of cells that contain exactly star + 1
character. A question mark (?) matches exactly one character.

img9

3. For example, to count the number of cells that contain exactly star + a
series of zero or more characters. An asterisk (*) matches a series of zero
or more characters.

4. For example, to count the number of cells that contain star in any way.
No matter what is before or after star, this function finds all the cells that
contain star in any way.

5. Sumproduct
To calculate the sum of the products of corresponding numbers in one or
more ranges, use Excel's powerful SUMPRODUCT function.

1. For example, the SUMPRODUCT function below calculates the total


amount spent.
img18

Note: the SUMPRODUCT function performs this calculation: (2 * 1000) + (4


* 250) + (4 * 100) + (2 * 50) = 3500.

2. The ranges must have the same dimensions or Excel will display the
#VALUE! error.

img19

3. The SUMPRODUCT function treats any entries that are not numeric as if
they were zeros.
