I have two columns (A & B) of information. I'm trying to create a third (C) with the answer of B divided by A in the form of a percentage or if 100% a blank or dash (-). Below is an example.
I've tried several different formula combinations like =IF((B38/A38)<100,(B38/A38)," ") I can get the percentage answers okay but have not been able to get the wanted result of a blank or a dash.
**A** **B** **C**
1.99 0.99 49.7%
1.99 1.99
3.99 3.99 -
2.99 1.99 66.6%
Thank you for any help given.
100% displayed as an integer is 1, so you want =IF(B1/A1=1,"-",B1/A1)
You are not getting the desired result for the blank because the statement is always true. replace 100 by 100%-
=IF((B38/A38)<100%,(B38/A38),"")

I'm trying to use XLOOKUP to find a value based on user inputs.
The table looks like this:
Type Start End 33 36 42 48
---------------------------------------
4002 1 7 1.17 1.34 1.5 1.84
4002 8 12 1.84 1.67 2.1 3.45
User selects type, number (can be between start and end), and 33-48
I can nest an XLOOKUP to specify the 3 criteria
=XLOOKUP(*type* & *number* , *typeRange* & *numberRange* ,XLOOKUP(*33-48* , *33-48Range* , *ResultRange* ))
And I can find if a value is between the columns
=IF(AND(*number*>=*Start*,*number*<=*End*),TRUE,FALSE)
Can I combine the two? The data is redundant for numbers 1-7, and I would like to keep the table small.
You sort-of can combine them. I have added a couple of extra rows to the table to see what would happen if you had different Type values as well as number values. The problem then is that if you used approximate match and put in a number like thirteen which is out of range, you might end up getting the next row of the table which would be incorrect. One way round it would be to use the options in Xlookup to search for next-smaller-item in the Start column and next-larger-item in the End column and see if the results match:
=IF(XLOOKUP(I2&TEXT(J2,"00"),A2:A7&TEXT(B2:B7,"00"),XLOOKUP(K2,D1:G1,D2:G7),,-1)=XLOOKUP(I2&TEXT(J2,"00"),A2:A7&TEXT(C2:C7,"00"),
XLOOKUP(K2,D1:G1,D2:G7),,1),XLOOKUP(I2&TEXT(J2,"00"),A2:A7&TEXT(C2:C7,"00"),XLOOKUP(K2,D1:G1,D2:G7),,1),"Error")
If you have some checks in place which make it impossible for number to be out of range, then you can simplify the formula:
=XLOOKUP(I2&TEXT(J2,"00"),A2:A7&TEXT(B2:B7,"00"),XLOOKUP(K2,D1:G1,D2:G7),,-1)
or
=XLOOKUP(I2&TEXT(J2,"00"),A2:A7&TEXT(C2:C7,"00"),XLOOKUP(K2,D1:G1,D2:G7),,1)
I have a dataset with the following problem.
Sometimes, a temperature sensor would return duplicate readings at the exact same minute, where sometimes 1 of 2 of the duplicates is "reasonable" and the other is slightly off.
For example:
TEMP TIME
1 24.5 4/1/18 2:00
2 24.7 4/1/18 2:00
3 24.6 4/1/18 2:05
4 28.3 4/1/18 2:05
5 24.3 4/1/18 2:10
6 24.5 4/1/18 2:10
7 26.5 4/1/18 2:15
8 24.4 4/1/18 2:15
9 24.7 4/1/18 2:20
10 22.0 4/1/18 2:20
Line 5, 7 & 10 are readings that are to be removed as they are too high or low (doesn't make sense that within 5 minutes it will rise and drop more than a degree in a relatively stable environment).
The goal at the end with this dataset is to "average" the similar values (such as in line 1 & 2) and just remove the lines that are too extreme (such as line 5 & 7) from the dataset entirely.
Currently my idea to formulate this is to look at a previously obtained row, and if one of the 2 duplicates is +/- 0.5 degree, to mark in a 3rd column with TRUE so I can filter out all the TRUE values in the end. I'm not sure how to communicate within the if statement that I'm looking for a + OR - 0.5 of a previous number however. Does anyone know?
Here is a google sheet example that does what you want:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Va9RjSeulOfVTd-0b4EM4azbUkYUb22jXNc_EcafUO8/edit?usp=sharing
What I did:
Calculate a column of a 3-item running average of the data using "=AVERAGE(B3:B1)"
Filter the list using "=IF(ABS(B2-C2) < 1, B2, )"
Calculate the average of the filtered list
The use of Absolute Value is what provides "+ OR -" that you were looking for. It is saying if the distance between two numbers is too much, then don't include the term.
So, A Simple Solution came to my mind. Follow the Following steps given below:
Convert Data to Table
Add a 4th column at the last
Enter the formula "Current Value - Previous Value"
Filter the Column with high difference values
Delete those rows of filtered data and you'll be left with Normal Values
Here's the ref. Image
Or If you want to consider the Same time difference only then do the following:
Convert your data to Table
Add 4th column at the end of table
Writhe the Following Formula to 4th Column
IF(Current_Time = Previous_Time, Current_Temp-Previous_Temp,"")
Filter and Delete the Data with high Difference
See the following Image:
Im trying to find matches between column B and C when the value in A is above a certain threshold.
0.99 p269 p269
0.99 p312 p312
0.64 p249 p249
0.64 p247 p247
0.09 p243 p284
I'm trying the Countifs method but it doesnt work.
=COUNTIFS(
A1:A31968,">" & F2,
B1:B31968,C1:C31968
)
The first part works (F2 is my treshold), but the I want to check all rows.
So when my threshold is 0.5 I want 4 as a result. When the threshold is 0.08 I still want 4 because the labels of the fifth row don't match. How do I do this?
One option would be to add a fourth column to spreadsheet in column D containing the following formula:
=IF(B1=C1, 1, 0)
Here is what your spreadsheet looks like now:
A B C D
0.99 p269 p269 1
0.99 p312 p312 1
0.64 p249 p249 1
0.64 p247 p247 1
0.09 p243 p284 0
In other words, if columns B and C agree, there is a 1 otherwise 0. Then, you can use the following COUNTIFS formula:
=COUNTIFS(A1:A5,">0.5",D1:D5,"=1")
Here we check the 0.5 threshhold on column A as you were already doing, but we also check that the B and C values are in agreement.
The other option is to use a pseudo-array formula
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A5>F2)*(B1:B5=C1:C5))
to combine the two conditions. It doesn't have to be entered as an array formula, but may have performance issues if used on several thousand rows of data.
I have a data set something like this
Units Price
1 15
100 10
150 9
200 8
50000 7
I need the output as Price with respect to quantity.
Example- If Input value is 90 it should give price as 15
If input is 210 it should give value as 8.
However,sadly I cannot use IF statement.
Thanks in advance.
You can use a combination of INDEX and MATCH
=INDEX(B1:B5,MATCH(lookup_value,A1:A5,1))
This assumes Units are in column A and Price is in column B
Make sure you understand both functions:
INDEX
MATCH - particularly the reason for the ,1) at the end
You can also use VLOOKUP. This is probably a bit easier although INDEX/MATCH is more versatile:-
=VLOOKUP(Lookup_value,$A$2:$B$6,2,TRUE)
I have following data
6489 O-Ring 3.00
6431 O-Ring 2.85
6433 O-Ring 2.95
6321 O-Ring 2.45
8008 Machined 645.00
8148 Machined 655.50
I am using formula
=DAVERAGE(D131:F134,E132,F131:F134)
But returns error !DIV/0
i need the exact way to calculate the daverage of my values in list
Your values are text, not numeric, change them to numbers, i.e. enter 3, 2.85 in the top 2
First, you need to add headers to your Database that you are trying to get the Daverage function to work on (see screen-shot below).
Then use the formula:
=DAVERAGE($D$131:$F$137,"Price",H131:H132)
With respective to the format in the screen-shot below (also your "criteria" need headers for the Comparison to work on, Columns H and I):
