Calculate Written Numbers

Dec 30, 2006

Whilst I was searching through the channels on telly the other night I came across a 'Quiz Call' channel where you had to add ALL the number within a certain sum (see sample) Sixteen minus five times seven multiply by nine add twelve

You not only have to do the sum you also have to add in all the less obvious numbers like the Six within Sixteen, plus also all the Roman numbers in each word like the I, X, & IX within the sixteen. I've done a small example to show what I mean, but I don't have any idea how to create a formula that will add up all of all of the permitations of roman numerals within each word.

Excel 2010 :: Formatting Numbers Written In Text To Numeric And Pulling Only Numbers Out

Feb 20, 2013

I am extracting data from a website to excel 2010. my problem is the data contains both text, numbers, and sometimes a combination of both.

e.g. hi im ron for more information you can reach me at 6 five 6 four 5 seven 7 three 2 two..

I need it to look like this 6564577322 or 7 * 0 * 2 * 4 * 5 * 6 * 8 * 6 * 2 * 1...i need to look look the same

How do i first format the numbers written in text into numbers and then show only the numbers in a cell minus the text?

Return All Row Numbers That Have Given Value Written Somewhere Inside Text In Column B

Jul 24, 2013

By "Return all row numbers that have a given value written somewhere inside text in their column B" I mean....

I want to be able to search an alphanumeric value "ABC12345" within a column that has a paragraph of text written in each row, I want to know which rows have this value written somewhere in them and have it return 2,4,33, as row 2 and 4 and 33 have this value in them inside column B on that row.

on column A i have the respective row numbers all the way down ie: ( 1,2,3,4, etc) (to pull up the row numbers)(unless you have a better way)

On Column B i have the paragraphs of text to search in (there is lots of text and spaces in the paragraphs.)

On column C i have the value to look for... ie: ABC12345 (different values in each row of column C) to be compared to all of column B

On column D would be the formula to Pull down and get the results.

and something tells me you might have a better way of getting the row numbers rather than having column A dedicated to numerating each row 1,2,3,etc

1
paragraphs of text
look for
it's found in row #

2
anything can be written here and might have ABC11112
DDD77777
4

3
anything can be written here and might have ABC12345
ABC55555
5,6

4
anything can be written here and might have DDD77777
BBB11111
Not Found

5
anything can be written here and might haveABC55555
ABC11112
2

6
anything can be written here and might haveABC55555

Use IF To Avoid Getting Anything Written After

Nov 5, 2008

I'm havin' a chart for interest, instalments and so on;

Interest [X%] Loan [Z crowns/dollars]
Loantime [Y years] Instalment [formula, which is "=Z/Y/12"]for each month.

Year, Month, Loan(left), Instalment, Total payment
1, Januari, =Z, =Instalment (constant), =Interest+Instalment

Month, Loan(left), Interest
Februari, =above-Instalment, =X%*Loan(left)/12 (rent is divided per year),

Instalment, Total payment
Constant, =rent+Instalment

and so on... as long as you want ^^ (it's quite messy, but try :D)

The question is as follows "What would a loan of 900'000kr with 9% interest rate totally cost over 30 years?"

[use "IF" to avoid getting anything written after the loan expires]

The question itself can be easily solved by just dragging the formulas down to 30 years and fill in the % and loan etc. But what I do not understand is the "IF" question. I'm supposed to use the IF function to instantly show the cost of the loan (total rent payment) after the 30 years? That's how I understood it. In that case... how do I do that? ^^

Written Number()

Feb 15, 2007

This is a a formula entered in a checkbook program for excel that I downloaded. But I want to use my current accounting spreadsheet to print checks. The problem is I don't know how to get excel to write out a number like $23.40 as:

Twenty Three & 40/100

Does anyone know how this is done? Is it something simple that I am overlooking - i can't find anything like this in the number formatting section of excel.

Calculate 17 Numbers Over 25 Cells

Sep 23, 2013

I am trying to generate a formula that will add the last 17 cells over 25 cells worth of data. If there is nothing entered in one of the cells then the formula should add the next cell.

i.e. column Z needs to add A1:Y1 but only add the last 17 cells that have a number in it so this should add I1:Y1 to give 17 cells worth of data. BUT if for example L1 and P1 are zero, then column Z needs to add G1:Y1, still giving 17 cells worth of data.

Modify To Calculate Numbers Only

Aug 14, 2008

I'm using sum to calculate numbers can I modify it not to calculate numbers? like it'll return blank or something else. Because it calculates alphabets in a row and returns a 0.

tSumthing = "=SUM(RC4:RC[-1])"

then based on the 0's I got above, it'll delete the row. I got diffculty modifying the formula below.
Columns(1).SpecialCells(xlBlanks).EntireRow.Delete

Whole Numbers To Decimals & Calculate

Jul 2, 2007

I want to convert the number in a cell, G7, from a whole number into a decimal and then divide that decimal into a whole number in cell E7 and give me the quotient in cell E8.

ie:312 = 6.0
286 = 5.5
260 = 5.0
234 = 4.5
208 = 4.0
182 = 3.5
156 = 3.0
130 = 2.5
104 = 2.0
78 = 1.5
52 = 1.0

Could this also be done with the entire range of numbers from 312 to 52 and giving decimals of 6.0, 5.9, 5.8 etc.

Cannot Calculate Cells With Numbers

Apr 15, 2008

I really didn't want to create this thread, but this is really bugging me and I have had asked for assistance with this. I have tried to bump this in March and again last week, I have given more than 48 hours for a response, but I am seeing that the view counter is increasing so slowly, it was at 84 when I 'bumped' and I am not sure if someone is able to help me as the thread is moving further down the line.

I have not had any trouble with what I have used in over a year, I have had used Vlookup religously for 2 years, and for the last 3 months, I have encountered this problem. Didn't think anything of it the first time it happened. It was explained that there was a space in the cell, which is why the formula did not find it. What's strange is that it only happens on one cell. I haven't determined if it is the exact same cell reference, but I am researching that.

The formatting is the same, in both sheets. Is there some way to vlookup look up the value of the contents as seen?

Calculate Numbers Required For X Percentage

Aug 14, 2007

what I'm trying to do.

Background:
I play a game that requires 5 members to play, however you can have more then 5 members on the team. In order for a player to receive points for playing they must have played at least 30% of the total games played. The problem for me is when trying to figure out how many games someone needs to play to get to 30%, the total goes up as they play those games.

What I would like to accomplish:
I'm looking for help on a formula that would figure out how many games a player would need to play to get to 30%. I have a column that is total games played, %of games played by player, games played by player, and games needed to play to get to 30%. Basically the user would enter the # of games played by each player, and the total games played overall for the team for that week, the spreadsheet would then show the # of games each player that isn't above 30% would need to play.

I tried to make the question as clear as possible, if anyone needs clarification,

Calculate Average Where All Numbers Equal X

Dec 7, 2007

I have done is created an Officer Evaluation Form in Word for my Police Chief and the Scores for the different observations are: N/A, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. If for example there are 4 observations and one of the observations is "N/A" for not applicable or not observed and the rest are all 5's I want the formula to ignore the field(s) with the N/A and still come up with an average of 5. The way I have it set up now which is: =AVERAGE(KOW1,KOW2,KOW3,KOW4) it comes up with an average of 3 when I put a N/A in field KOW1 and all 5's in KOW2-KOW4.

Macro Open The Worksheet In Which It Was Written

Sep 13, 2007

I've written a macro and i've added a button to the toolbar so that it's easy for users of the spreadsheet to run the macro. the problem i'm running into is that the sheet that the macro's written in is a template. the macro formats some downloaded junk. soooo, every time someone downloads stuff, they copy-paste into the template, push the button, and it formats it.

my problem is that when they Save As, the button's assigned macro gets reset to the name of the file they saved as. therefore, when someone else comes along and press the button, it doesn't run the macro out of the original template sheet which they have open, instead it tries to find the last sheet that was saved and run the macro through it.
