This is sort of what Im working with:
Col A Col B Col C
X 100 10
X 200 15
X 300 20
Y 100 12
Y 200 18
Y 300 24
What I want to do is to find the value in Col C where Col A is Y and Col B is 200. I used VLOOKUP to find the value in Col C where Col B is a certain value, but since I have multiple cells in Col B with the same values I need to specify which one of them I need to match with the value in Col C.
You could use a formula like:
=INDEX(C1:C6, SUMPRODUCT((A1:A6="Y")*(B1:B6=200)*ROW(C1:C6)), 0)
Note, however, that this will only work if the combination of values in column A and B are unique.

I have a C column with several rows containing numbers. I have another E Column with rankings.
I would like a formula that will automatically change the number in a 3rd column G based on the ranking in E column
So,
If the ranking is 2 in E the number in G is number in column C
minus 1
If the ranking is 1 the number in E the number in G is
number in column C minus 2
Any other ranking the number remains the
same.
Example -
C E G
19 2 18
12 1 10
15 3 15
Put below formula in G column -
=IF(E1=1,C1-2,IF(E1=2,C1-1,C1))
Above formula is for row 1. Adjust row value according to your need.
Explanation -
Check if E column contains 1, then subtract 2 from C column
Else, check if E column contains 2, then subtract 1 from C
column
Else, G column is same as C column

I am new in excel tool and want to find last 4 digits of column2 in column3. If found then want to show column1 value in column4.
Let's see: for first row, last 4 digits of column2 value is '4160'. It is present in front of I. So column4 value is I.
A simple INDEX/MATCH function pair should so, providing you use the RIGHT function to peel off the right 4 digits from the longer number in column B.
=INDEX(A:A, MATCH(--RIGHT(B1, 4),C:C, 0))
Fill down as necessary.
Place this formula in column 4:
=INDEX($A$2:$A$15,MATCH(VALUE(RIGHT(B2,4)),$C$2:$C$15,0))
The formula assumes your data starts in cell A1 with the column 1 - 4 as headers.
The Index function will return the corresponding value in Column 1 for the Match of the Right 4 most characters for the value in column 2 against the values in column 3.
I have an Excel table with the first six columns having a value of 1 or 2. The next six columns are associated with the first six columns and have values that will need to be averaged - two averages will be computed based on whether there is a 1 or 2 value in the first six columns. Then depending on the two averages, the last six columns will need to be assigned a value equal to H (high average) or L (low average). This is difficult to explain, so here is an example:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R
1 2 2 1 2 2 1 8 8 9 8 6 8 L L H L L H
Columns C and F have values equal to 1, so columns I and L need to be averaged. Then because columns A, B, D and E have values equal to 2, columns G, H, J and K need to be averaged. The average of the columns associated with a value of 1 (I and L) is 8.5, and the average of the columns associated with a value of 2 (G, H, J and K) is 7.5. Columns M-R now must be labeled with an H or L depending on whether the corresponding values from columns G-L were part of the high (H) or low (L) average. In this case, since columns I and L had the larger average, then columns O and R need to be assigned an H. The other columns (M, N, P and Q) will be assigned an L because their associated columns (G, H, J, K) had the lower average.
Please consider the following formula placed on the first row of Column M and then copied across to Column R:
=IF(AVERAGEIF($A$1:$F$1,A1,$G$1:$L$1)=MAX(AVERAGEIF($A$1:$F$1,1,$G$1:$L$1),AVERAGEIF($A$1:$F$1,2,$G$1:$L$1)),"H","L")
Logic is if the average of the values that correspond to either the 1 or 2 on A1 is equal to the MAX of calculations between both, then this corresponds to the High number. If not it corresponds to the Low value. Note that this does not consider for when the averages are equal in which case all entries are noted as High. You can extend this by adding to the formula to check if the value is equal to the MIN of the same. Hope this helps. Regards,
If you don't want to use Visual Basic, you could use this method, but it might require more columns.
xx A B C D E F G H I J K L
1 2 2 1 2 2 1 8 8 9 8 6 8
For cell M1 type in: =if(A1=1, G1, "")
Note that this is two regular quotes (")s in a row after the G1 term.
Copy this over to cells M1-R1.
Now cells M1-R1 should only contain data for columns marked with a 1.
Next for cell S1 type in: =average(M1:R1)
This shouldn't factor in blank cells, So you should just have the average of "1" cells.
Now copy the process for the "2" cells:
For cell T1 type in: =if(A1=2, G1, "")
Copy this to cells T1-Y1.
For cell Z1 type in: =average(T1:Y1)
Now for cell AA1 type in: =if(S1 > Z1, 1, 2)
Now AA1 will have the number that has the higher average. So if the "1" cells had a higher average, cell AA1 will be a 1, otherwise it will be a 2.
Now for cell AB1 type in =if(A1=$AA1, "H", "L")
Copy AB1 to cells AB1 through AG1 and you're done.
Cells AB1-AG1 will have your H's and L's. Note that there is one drawback to this method, apart from it being a little complex, that is that if the averages are equal, it will still print "2"s as having the higher average.
Anyways hopefully you can find a simpler method, but this one should work if you can't.
I have values in columns G and N that have the same values, but not in the same order, so if column G and N matches, then return column L to column A. I am getting the wrong values from column L in column A.
What other information is needed besides formula below?
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(N2,$G$2:$N$413,6,FALSE),"")
Col a Col b Col G Col L Col M Col N
ID CoID Items ItemsID ParentID Items1
45 1 Apple 45 1 Apple
Since you are trying to find the ColumnL value in the same row as you find the ColumnN value I’d suggest an INDEX MATCH combination – similar to VLOOKUP but more powerful (eg can ‘look to the left’, which VLOOKUP can’t).
=IFERROR(INDEX(L:L,MATCH(G2,N:N,0)),"")
MATCH looks for the position where G2 is found in ColumnN so that is the row number for the ColumnL value you want returned.
So I have:
A B C down here i want to get an average
like this:
v 1 a (*1) filter col "C" for what i have in row for col C, in this case "a", then filter col A for what I have in my row for col A, then all those rows must be counted, then sum them and then: sum/count
v 2 a
y 3 a
y 7 a
y 3 a
v 2 b
y 4 b
v 2 b
y 7 b
thanks
You want COUNTIFS and SUMIFS (check Excel help for the params)
Assuming your first row starts on A1:
=SUMIFS($B$1:$B$9,$C$1:$C$9,C1,$A$1:$A$9,A1) / COUNTIFS($C$1:$C$9,C1,$A$1:$A$9,A1)
