The first step of getting awesome in Excel is to understand that you can ask Excel do things for you. This is done by speaking a special language called as “Excel Formulas”. When you write a formula or function, you are asking Excel to figure out something from the values you have. Say you want to add up a bunch of values in a range A1:A10, you can ask Excel to do this for you by writing =SUM(A1:A10) and bingo, you get the result immediately. The best part is, if your numbers change, the answer changes too.

If you are a beginner, Excel formula list can feel overwhelming. Why not? There are hundreds of different formulas in Excel. So which formulas should you learn?

Excel Formula list, examples and how-to - Free Guide

This guide gives you the answer. Here is a 100+ Excel formula list for every occasion. Each box describes a problem statement, an example, result, some notes and link to learn more. Use this guide to learn formulas quickly.

Data for Excel formula list in this guide

Most formula examples shown here are self-explanatory. In some places I have used a table of data, called staff. Here is a snapshot of the Staff table. When looking a formula example, refer to this image to understand how the calculation works.

Formulas related to check things, apply business rules and logic control

Microsoft Excel has several powerful functions to check things and set up control or business logic in your workbooks. You can use IF function to write simple logic expressions or nest multiple IF functions for more complex scenarios. You can also use newly introduced IFS function to write long multi-step if function. This only works in Office 365 or Excel online. See below examples to learn more about formulas and functions to check things and apply business rules.

Check a condition and output one of the two possible values

While Excel is predominantly a number driven tool, we still have lots of text values in spreadsheets. Excel has many powerful and elegant text processing functions to help you extract, analyze or understand your text / string values. You can use the special operator & to combine text values or even work with newly introduced TEXTJOIN() function to combine a range of values to one. Keep in mind, this TEXTJOIN only works in Office 365 or Excel Online at the moment. In the below examples, know how to work with string / text values in your workbooks using formulas.

Convert text to lower case

Example

Weighted Average in Excel with Percentage Weights

Weighted Average in Excel [Formulas]

Learn how to calculate weighted averages in excel using formulas. In this article we will learn what a weighted average is and how to Excel’s SUMPRODUCT formula to calculate weighted average / weighted mean.

What is weighted average?

Wikipedia defines weighted average as, “The weighted mean is similar to an arithmetic mean …, where instead of each of the data points contributing equally to the final average, some data points contribute more than others.”

Calculating weighted averages in excel is not straight forward as there is no built-in formula. But we can use SUMPRODUCT formula to easily calculate them. Read on to find out how.

  30. MJ says:

    Plz help.. I am still not sure of the difference between MODE & MODE.SNGL

    • Chandoo says:

      @MJ... here we go
      1) MODE.SNGL gives you the most frequent item in a list of values. If there are multiple items that are most frequent, then this will give the first such number. For ex. {1,1,2,2,3} , MODE.SNGL gives 1
      2) MODE.MULT gives you a list of all most frequent items. In the example {1,1,2,2,3}, MODE.MULT gives {1,2} as an array. If you select two cells and press CTRL+Shift+Enter on MODE.MULT({1,1,2,2,3}) then you will get both numbers, one per cell.
      3) MODE is the original excel function for this kind of thing. The result will be same as MODE.SNGL. It is there for backwards compatibility.

      For your work, either use MODE.SNGL or MODE.MULT. If you have a colleague or client still using older versions of Excel, then switch to MODE.

      Hope that helps.

  31. Mark Nordhaus says:

    Thanks Chandoo. Good reference.

    • Sandeep Kothari says:

      Dear Chandoo
      How to select two cells and then press CTRL+Shift+Enter on MODE.MULT({1,1,2,2,3}) at the same time as I select the 2 cells?
      I tried but failed miserably. Pl enlighten.

  32. Meni Porat says:

    This is fabulous, no doubt.

    One minor comment, though.
    In the "Remove anything after a symbol or word" tip, I'd wrap the original formula with IFERROR in case the desired character "@" was not found.
    Something like:
    =IFERROR(LEFT(H3,FIND("@",H3)-1),"Error. Character not found in string")

    Best Regards

    If I copy a lengthy list of
    Company's names
    Addresses and phone numbers

    Then paste them in excel, is there a method that can extract and divide the pasted information to specific columns and rows?

    An example of what the pasted info is as follows

    [ABC123 Retail store LLC.] [123 hyper avenue. ]
    [ ] [Westerly, Ri 02893. ]
    [ ] [United states401-555-5555]

    Its a task that has 2500 stores to reconfigure the formats

    Also as you may have noticed, the words " United states and phone numbers " are not spaced or separated in cells

    Thanks for your time and any consideration given to this matter

    Regards

    I’ve been working with Excel all day but after seeing this blog I think I can easily submit the report after few hours which usually takes me the whole shift and sometimes, it takes me days to finish it off.

    Chandoo
    I am looking for a custom number format that shows (02 45 67) or (02 45 67.13) just by typing in the number without spaces but including the period between the last set of two numbers. (024567) I want to show up as (02 45 67) and if I type in (024567.13) I want it to show up as (02 45 67.13).
    I have tried everything I could find using the custom format for numbers but could not get it to work.
    Thanks for your consideration in replying

      You can try the format code 00 00 00.00 but it will show 24567 as 02 45 67.00
      I am not sure if we can suppress decimal point values when there is none.
