Excel Formula Quick Reference

The six formulas that cover most everyday needs.

=SUM(A1:A10) adds a column. =AVERAGE(A1:A10) finds the average. =COUNT(A1:A10) counts the numbers. =MAX(A1:A10) and =MIN(A1:A10) find the largest and smallest. =A1-B1 subtracts.

Every formula starts with an equals sign.
