Can't Multiply...why Is Simple Multiplication Incorrect?
Nov 7, 2008
On the PROPOSAL tab, at I41, a simple multiplication instruction is wrong. It's multiplying 72*186.53 which = 13430.16 in the real world, but on this sheet 11 cents are missing. I'm pulling my hair out on this one....
Below, starting from b4 to l4 I have years from 2005 to 2015, row 5 for the same range contains data, row 6 (c to l) contains a growth rate.
I need to come up with a formula that can multiply (x * y * z *... [product-like formula]) the growth rates for all the years where the current year (row 4) is bigger than reference the reference year in a1 or smaller than reference year in a2. A3 is then used to multiply that total.
what i am trying to do is multiply the numbers in two seperate cells on the same row (e.g. C1*D1) and do this for the whole column where there is data (so it could go down to (C9*D9)
I was wondering how I would execute this in a macro, I am also looking to show the total value of all these added together but one step at a time
As I have illustrated in the example below, I want to multiply a value by 1.(something). The 1. is always constant, where the I8 cell is variable. I can't get this to work.
I have a worksheet with many lines of inputted numbers (values). I want to divide each number in the sheet by 4. However, I don't want to move any of the numbers because other sheet in the workbook refer to these cells. Does anyone know how i can do this easily?
I obviously know less about functions than I thought I did. I've got the attached spreadsheet set up except getting totals at the bottom. The production total L44, would be column A multiplied by the quantity entered in columns L and summed. Same for Total SF, square footage in column B times quantity in L and summed at the bottom. This would continue daily, needing sums under each column.
3. The program should ask the user what two numbers from 1-10 would he like to multiply.
4. The program should not multiply the two numbers but instead use the two numbers as reference for the element number and locate the corresponding element.
5. The corresponding element should have the value same as the product of the two numbers entered by the user.
Part 2:
1. Do the same as Part 1 but this time automate the creation of the multiplication table using the concept of array.
Here's what I've done so far for part 1
[Code]...
But when I enter the two numbers It just displays the value in cells(2,6)
I am writing a spreadsheet as a report for a customer and i want to show the following in the sheet.
A customer buys 12 of XProduct (retails £2) A customer buys 15 of YProduct (retails £3) A customer buys 20 of ZProduct (retails £5)
I want the sheet to have columns stating - Amount Bought - Product - Gross Amount.
And i want to be able to have the product column intelligent enough to know that if i type any of my products sold it will automatically attribute the correct cost (i.e. I type in Xproduct and it knows that value is £2) so that in the Gross Amount column it will all make sense, and save me having to manually put in the retail cost each time which will occasionally change. At present i have the same three columns and i multiply the Amount Bought with what i know is the cost and do the sum myself and then enter the result in excel -
If I wanted to get a cell, say A1, to multiply a value, for example 7, by the results in another cell, say B1, but NOT multiply if that cell's value is a minus number, is there a way of getting Excel to do that?
Normally I'd just type =SUM(A1*B1)*7, but how can that be reconfigured to ignore minus numbers? e.g. if B1 contained -5, ?
Have 10 columns... one column would be for the "1s", another for the "2s", another for the "3s", etc...
But I don't want to have them in straight order (i.e. 1 x 1 =, 1 x 2 =, 1 x 3 =, etc...) because the pattern is easily memorized, no matter what number he's working on.
I'd like to be able to hit a button (or something) and have each column shuffle (or randomize) the order in which the equations will be displayed.
So, a column might come up 3 x 6 =, 3 x 9 =, 3 x 1 =, 3 x 4 =, etc...
And next time it might come up 3 x 5 =, 3 x 2 =, 3 x 4 =, etc...
This way he won't be able to memorize any patterns and he'll actually need to learn his multiplication tables.
I just started using VBA and WOW at the possibilities!! I have some data I am trying to calculate and decided upon researching VBA that this would be the easiest way to do what I need to. The code goes through no errors but D2 is .0001 and N2 is 12000 and the answer I get when I multiply the 2 through VBA is 0.000 however if I change the number in D2 to 2 then I get 24000. I tried the help menu and possibly this is because I didn't do something right with the decimal?
In a range ("A1:A30") are values, What I need to do is have those values multipled by 1.07 and the new value incerter in the cell using VBA, I dont wantto use a formula.
Take a single cell in column D, and multiply it by a single cell in column E, which will equal F. Take column F, and multiply it by .02 (2%), which will equal G. Take a cell in column G, and subtract it from F, which will equal I. And this all takes place in the same row. Then have it move down to the next row, and do the same thing..... so it would basically look like this.....
A B C D E F G H I 1 D1 E1 (D1*E1) (F1*.02) (G1-F1)
2 D2 E2 (D2*E2) (F2*.02) (G2-F2)
3 D3 E3 (D3*E3) (F3*.02) (G3-F3)
For easier reading.... in each row I want it to do the following math D*E=F F*.02=G G-F=I
And then do it for every row that I have data in (excluding the VERY first row). I am -COMPLETELY- sorry if I broke any rules, and am also sorry for the poor representation
I have to maintain freight cost according to the shipment weight. Our shipper has different charges for different scale/quantity of shipment. For example, according to the attached picture; Rate for up to 10 Kilo is $ 20 per kilo. For weight more than 10 kilo and up to 20 kilo, Rate will be $ 15 per kilo and so on.
Now, suppose my shipment weight is 28 kilo. My cost will be $ 200 for 10 kg, $ 150 for next 10 kg and $ 80 for the last 8 kg. In total $ 430.
I have to calculate the total cost separately. I wonder if I could devise a formula by which I could put the weight in a single cell and get the freight cost instantly.
Problem solving multiplication of two matrices with entries decimal in vba code:
Code: Option Explicit
Public MatrixA(30, 30) As Long Public MatrixB(30, 30) As Long Public MatrixC(30, 30) As Long Public RowA As Integer Public ColA As Integer Public RowB As Integer Public ColB As Integer
I'm trying to make a table of the total amount of a liquid used throughout the day. Here is what I am trying to do: In cell D4, I want to be able to enter something similar to the following: 3cup+2bottle+1liter
and by doing so, Excel can automatically recognize that 1cup is 8oz, 1bottle is 17oz, and 1liter is 34 oz because of the reference chart provided on the side. Also, it would be able to notice the 3, 2, and 1 amounts so it would multiply accordingly so it would know to do this: (3*8)+(2*17)+(1*34)
and then put the calculated amount in the cell. The correct answer should be 92oz. Is there a way for Excel to recognize the conversions (i.e. whenever it sees 'cup' it will multiply by 8) and multiplication factors (i.e. 3, 2, 1)?Is there a formula I can enter that I can just "drag" down to the upcoming days in column D?
I know I can just do something like this: (3*G4)+(2*G5)+(1*G6).
I am trying to multiply one array of prices for multiple input products across the volume that that product my go into multiple end products.
I know you can use SUMPRODUCT with two arrays that are equal BUT I want to Multiply the price matrix across 15 or 16 other matrices and sum all the products. The price matrix and the other arrays are all 1 x "whatever".
I want to automate the Display labels in my Charts using VBA Coding…
I would need to use this small code in Charts with different Scales as some of the Scales in my Data are in a very large Range close to Trillions so its not possible to have these as the Primary-Y-Axis Scale and therefore I would need to use the in-built Display label option which Excel provides..
However, I always prefer to have the scale in the Range of Thousands so the Max I can have in the Scale can be 10,000 so if there is any Number more than that or the Scale is going above than I would prefer that this gets auto-calculated to Multiply with the remainder and show appropriate Scaling.
For Ex:In this example My largest Number is 4500000000 which is 100 M..So I would want the scale to show 4500 and the Display label as X Millions..
So The Display Label would be different for different Ranges but the Max Scale preffered would be 10,000.
I am having problems with the following formular in that it does not return what I am expecting.
I have 2 columns of data that hold Y/N values and I would like either "Yes" or "No" to be displayed in Col C for the 4 possible combinations that the interaction of Y and N in columns A&B give.
The data is Col A:A = Y or N Col B:B =Y or N
The four possible combinations and outcomes are: Col A = Y & Col B = Y outcome in Col C = "Yes" Col A = N & Col B = Y outcome in Col C = "Yes"
Col A = N & Col B = N outcome in Col C = "No" Col A = Y & Col B = N outcome in Col C = "No"
The formular I have tried is: =IF(OR(AND(A1="Y",B1="Y"),A1="N",B1="Y"),"Yes","No")
However while three of the outcomes for the combinations are correct (N/Y, Y/N, Y/Y), the output for the N/N combination is incorrect and returns "Yes" instead of "No".
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what is wrong with this?
I've created a spreadsheet to 'translate' number/letter combinations (sub-levels in the UK education system) into a numerical value. I looked up how to do this on google and, through a bit of trial and error, worked out that the lookuptable has to be in alphabetical order, etc.
My problem is when I enter in any of the 'P' values (see attached), it returns 0.5.
I have the following code, taken from an example off the web. But I would like to change the save path to just C/: rather than copy the save path of the original file...I would also like to not close the active workbook that I am working in....how can i achieve this?

I have two pieces of code in module 1 and module 2 respectively:
This code is meant to find the first row number that has a string value of "" in column A:
HTML Code: Sub Macro1() Dim cell As Range Dim r As Double Dim p As String For Each cell In Worksheets("stock in").Range("stockcode") p = cell.Value r = cell.Row If p = "" Then Exit For Else Next cell End Sub
BTW column A will contain formulas that evaluate to "" so I assume cell.value will = "" even if it contains a formula?
In the second module a sort is executed on the range based on the number of rows:
HTML Code: Sub Macro2() ' ' Macro2 Macro ' Call Macro1
My code is falling down because I think my variables arent scoped right or my code is in the wrong place. Also macro1 will eventually be executed from a button on a different sheet (I dont know if this will matter).
The whole point of this code is to get around the fact that if you perform A - Z sorts on cells that contain formulas those that evaluate to "" will be at the top leaving lots of blank rows before actual visible data.
