Excel Formulas

Basic math

Function Formula Example


To add up the total =SUM(cell range) =SUM(B2:B9)
To add individual items =Value1 + Value 2 =B2+C2
Subtract =Value1 - Value 2 =B2-C2
Multiply =Value1 * Value2 =B2*C2
Divide =Value1 / Value2 =B2/C2
Exponents =Value1 ^ Value2 =B2^C2
Average =AVERAGE(cell range) =AVERAGE(B2:B9)
Median =MEDIAN(cell range) =MEDIAN(B2:B9)
Max =MAX(cell range) =MAX(B2:B9)
Min =MIN(cell range) =MIN(B2:B9)

Simple formatting tricks

Function Formula Example


To change a cell to proper =PROPER(cell) =PROPER(A2)
case
To change a cell to upper =UPPER(cell) =UPPER(A2)
case
To change a cell to lower =LOWER(cell) =LOWER(A2)
case

Conditional statements
Function Formula Example
If statement =IF(logical test, “result if =IF(B2>69,”Pass”,”Fail”)
the test answer is true”,
“result if the test answer is
false”)
Exact =EXACT(Value1, value2) =EXACT(B2, C2)

Putting things together


Function Formula Example
To combine cells with a =CONCATENATE(text, “ ”, =CONCATENATE(A2, “ “,
space in-between text) B2)
To combine cells with a =text & “ “ & text =A2 & “ “ & B2
space in-between (second
option)

Dealing with dates


Function Formula Example
Return the year =YEAR(datefield) =YEAR(A2)
Return the month =MONTH(datefield) =MONTH(A2)
Return the day =DAY(datefield) =DAY(A2)
Return the day of the week =WEEKDAY(datefield) =WEEKDAY(A2)
(1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday,
3 = Tuesday, etc.)
To create a date from year, =DATE(year, month, day) =DATE(B2, C2, D2)
month, and day

Pulling things apart


Function Formula Example
To select a certain number =LEFT(cellwithtext, =LEFT(A2, 6)
of characters from the left number of characters to be
returned)
To select a certain number =RIGHT(cellwithtext, =RIGHT(A2, 6)
of characters from the right number of characters to be
returned)
Find text in a field =SEARCH(“text you want =SEARCH(“,”, A2)
to find”, where you want to
find it)
Extract information from =MID(cellwithtext, start =MID(A2, 9, 4)
the middle position, number of
characters you want
returned)
Separate a last name LEFT and SEARCH =LEFT(A2, SEARCH(“,”,
(Example: Smith, Jane) functions A2)‐1)
Separate a first name MID and SEARCH =MID(A2, SEARCH(“,”,
(Example: Smith, Jane) functions A2)+2, 20)
