So lets say I have a few numbers in a sheet
a b c d
1 33 53 23 11
2 42 4 83 64
3 75 3 48 38
4 44 0 22 45
5 2 34 76 6
6
7 Total 85
I would like to display those numbers so that the cell value still holds the original figure (A1 = 33)
but the cell displays both the number and a percentage from the total (B7) eg
a b c d
1 33 (39%) 53 (62%) 23 (27%) 11 (13%)
2 42 (49%) 4 (5%) 83 (98%) 64 (75%)
3 75 (88%) 3 (4%) 48 (56%) 38 (45%)
4 44 (52%) 0 (0%) 22 (26%) 45 (53%)
5 2 (2%) 34 (40%) 76 (89%) 6 (7%)
6
7 Total 85
I know how to format a cell as a percentage, but I can't figure out how to display both original values, the calculated percentage value (value/total*100), but not change the cell value so I could still sum the cells in the end (eg. A6 =SUM(A1:A5) = 196)
Does anyone have an idea? I was hoping there could be a way to duplicate and calculate the figure using text formatting, but I can't get anything to work.
I'm guessing this is a trivial answer and maybe not what you're looking for, but why not just add a column for each of the columns you have now?
a a' b b' c c' d d'
1 33 (39%) 53 (62%) 23 (27%) 11 (13%)
2 42 (49%) 4 (5%) 83 (98%) 64 (75%)
3 75 (88%) 3 (4%) 48 (56%) 38 (45%)
4 44 (52%) 0 (0%) 22 (26%) 45 (53%)
5 2 (2%) 34 (40%) 76 (89%) 6 (7%)

#Ari’s answer seems to meet to meet the requirements in your question, not repeat information more than the example you gave for output requirement and be viable for up to around 8000 or so columns to start with (unless a very old version of Excel) and Jerry’s comment is also correct that what you want to achieve the way you want to achieve it is not possible.
However there are other approaches that might be acceptable substitutes. One is to copy your data and Paste Special with Operation Divide, either elsewhere or over the top of your data. If over the top this either shows the values or the percentages otherwise duplicates your data. Over the top would also require something like Operation Multiply to revert back to values, and reformatting each time if to appear as in your example.
Another is to use a PivotTable with some calculated fields and both are shown below:
I appreciate neither is exactly what you are asking for.

Im just wondering if its possible to quintile my data by group in Excel, using the percentile function.
I can quintile my entire data by doing =MATCH(C2|PERCENTILE(C$2:C$20|{5,4,3,2,1}/5)|-1) but I want to group it up by date.
e.g of data
Date Team_Id Score
04/02/2019 1 50
04/02/2019 2 58
04/02/2019 3 75
04/02/2019 4 34
04/02/2019 5 52
04/02/2019 6 81
05/02/2019 1 87
05/02/2019 2 75
05/02/2019 3 24
05/02/2019 4 75
05/02/2019 5 11
05/02/2019 6 84
06/02/2019 1 45
06/02/2019 2 67
06/02/2019 3 56
06/02/2019 4 55
06/02/2019 5 61
06/02/2019 6 15
06/02/2019 7 88
So basically I want it to be quintiled by Score for each date group, resulting value for each row in Excel should be 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. Ive been messing around with IF but just dont know where to place it.
If you can tolerate typing CTL SHFT ENTER (or at least wait until Microsoft comes out with their big release) I think this will work
=MATCH(C4,PERCENTILE(IF($A$4:$A$22=A4,$C$4:$C$22,""),{5,4,3,2,1}/5),-1)
This is essentially building a conditional array on each row based on the date
Again when entering the formula you have to type ctl SHIFT enter or it will work.
I'm not exactly sure what we're doing here so if this wrong, sorry.
Will this work?
=MATCH(C2,PERCENTILE(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(1+MATCH($A2,$A$2:$A$20,0),3)&":"&ADDRESS(ROW()+COUNTIF(A3:$A$20,$A2),3)),{5,4,3,2,1}/5),-1)
I've defined the range for the percentile calculation using an Indirect function where the start and end of the range are found with Match and Countif, respectively.
My table in Excel looks something like this:
abcd 67 94 52 89 24
efgh 23 45 93 54 34
ijkl 64 83 23 45 92
mnop 34 45 10 66 53
This is a student database containing marks obtained in various subjects. I need to calculate the percentage in each row such that out of 5 subjects, the first subject is always included with other 3 subject with maximum marks.
Example: abcd 67 94 52 89 24 75.5%
Here 75.5%=(67+94+52+89)/4=302/4=75.5 where 24 being the lowest has been excluded and 67 has to be taken even if it were the least.
What I require is the least(excluding the first column, of course) of all the columns in that particular row, so that I can sum all the marks and subtract this least marks and finally use it to calculate the percentage.
Any help/suggestion would be appreciated. Thank You.
You'll need to adjust this for your columns, but if you sum the entire range, then subtract the min value after, do a count of the range then subtract one from that, you will be able to get the average.
This code is using the 4 values from column B through F and the 4 values are: 67 94 52 89 24... which results in 75.5
=(SUM(B3:F3)-MIN(C3:F3))/(COUNT(B3:F3)-1)
I'm facing a issue with ranking in Excel particularly in regards to tie breaking. I tried several options but i guess they don't fit my issue. Its quite simple really, I'll explain:
The Data:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
87 83 74 95 69 90 73 0 74 85
121 121 96 121 121 121 121 83 121 121
As you can see its easy for me to rank the first line (I'm working in columns instead of rows for the data). When i do a Rank Function gives the following result:
3 5 6 1 9 2 8 10 6 4
Which is correct.
The problem arises in the second line. There are ties because all of them reach the maximum of 121:
1 1 9 1 1 1 1 10 1 1
What i would like to do is take the first row as a tie breaker. So even if there is a tie the first line which was firstly text but now is a sequence from 1 to 10 could provide as secondary criteria to order the rank, thus giving the following ranking line:
1 2 9 3 4 5 6 10 7 9
Could one achieve this result?
Thank You very much in advance.
You need a helper row to break the tie. You can add a fraction of the first row to the second row to create a new row & use the new row to rank
A4 = A3+(A2/(MAX($A$2:$J$2)+1))
Using the MAX I ensure the fraction is less than 1 which is adequate to break ties in this case.
A6 = RANK(A4,$A$4:$J$4)
You can hide the helper row if you dont want to show it.
I have a csv with the following info
Src Rx LinkId Weight
===================================
2 1 4000 10
2 1 4056 15
3 1 4100 10
3 1 4156 15
28 1 10650 8
113 2 15051 205
113 3 15058 205
1 4 3952 9
1 4 3951 5
1 4 3950 34
2 4 4052 9
47 4 18672 44
47 4 18670 38
69 4 4701 11
69 4 4700 21
70 4 4801 11
`
The linkId is unique. Each row represents the link between two devices. For example, source 2 and rx 1 means that a link goes from 2 to 1.
I intend to compute the total weight of all the links originating from each device and coming into each device like so:
Device Out weight In weight
=============================
2 25 205
1 48 58
and so on.
I would like to know if doing this is possible in excel. If yes, how.
Using a pivot table may be the best solution here and I think that if you select this table and click pivot-table it will give you your answer.
Alternatively, you can make a column for each in and out and use =sumif(Src, 1, weight ) and then use the totals at the bottom of each column.
I have a set of data that looks like this:
ID Value MaxByID
0 32 80
0 80 80
0 4 80
0 68 80
0 6 80
1 32 68
1 54 68
1 56 68
1 68 68
1 44 68
2 54 92
2 52 92
2 92 92
4 68 68
4 52 68
5 74 74
5 22 74
6 52 94
6 52 94
6 46 94
6 94 94
6 56 94
6 14 94
I am using {=MAX(IF(A$2:A$100=A2,B$2:B$100))} to calculate the MaxByID column. However, the dataset has >100k rows, with mostly unique IDs: this seems to be a really inefficient way to do this, as each cell in C:C has to iterate through every cell in A:A.
The ID field is numeric and can be sorted- is there a way of more intelligently finding the MaxByID?
You may be able to use a pivot table to find the maximum for each unique ID: see this link for an example.
Once you have that table, VLOOKUP should enable you to quickly find MaxByID for each ID.
Once you have sorted by ID you could add columns to get the start row number and count for each unique. These 2 numbers allow you to calculate the size and position of the range of Unique values. So then you can use MAX(OFFSET(StartValueCell,StartThisUnique-1,0,CountThisUnique,1)) to get the max
This might be faster
{=IF(A2=A1,C1,MAX(($A$2:$A$24=A2)*($B$2:$B$24)))}
Since your data appears to be sorted, you could see if the ID matches the row above and simply copy the max down.
