I'm trying to put a simple spreadsheet together that will help my son practice
his arithmetic for primary school.
What I have put together is something which will allow him to change say his multiplication tables fairly easily by changing one number.
Conditional formatting shows green if correct and red if wrong - all very easy.
However I think it would be good to show the selected problem in a top down layout
so he can visually see what he is trying to do rather than read across the page.
4
x 2
==
8
rather than 4 x 2 = 8
What I would like to do is change this displayed problem when selects the answer cell
he is working on.
I will attach what I have done so far with a display example on the multiplication tab.
attempting to utilize the powers of Excel to generate a math worksheet for my children. I have no experience with macros and I have only used the basic functions and formulae.
Basically I need assistance in designing a worksheet where I can input the number of problems I want displayed, the type of problems (add or minus), and the number ranges for the values. With a subtraction problem, I want the formula to make certain the top number is not lower than the bottom number. Also, I would prefer that the worksheet maker does not generate duplicate problems. Once generated, I have the option to print the results for the kids to take with them or sit on the computer and enter the values - whereby Excel will instantly turn color the answer cell green for a correct answer, and red for an incorrect answer.
I was trying to create an autobingo game for my kids which randomized the 5 by 5 grid. To do that I did combined a Randbetween and VLOOKUP to a table on a separate sheet which had the name of the object (i.e. "cow") in column 2 and a picture in column 3. Well, the VLookup will return the name of the object but won't return the pictures. Is there a way to get those embedded objects to move into my autobingo form? I'm thinking this requires a Visual basic macro.
I have a cell (G11) whose format is [h]:mm to store hours worked in a week. I need to use that in a VBA function. If I query G11.value I get a non-integer number (I DO know that Excel stores time internall like that). How can I get in a VBA procedure exactly what is see in the cell..e.g if someone worked 35:15 hours, I want to be able to get 35:15 in the procedure. I need to strip it from there to work out payment, eg (hourly rate * 35) + (hourly rate * (15/60)/100).
I have tried using format but it does not like the "[h].mm" argument.
Is it possible to create a formula that would give the sum of cells that are in arithmetic progression in excel?
Example: Let's first choose 4 cells that are in arithmetic progression, B14 , B20 , B26 and B32 for instance(the common difference here is 6). So what I want to do is: I want to type a formula in another cell, lets suppose C5, that will automatically give me the sum of the values of B14,B20,B26 and B32. I am aware that I can just type on C5 =B14+B20+B26+B32 but and if I wanted the sum of 90 cells? Wouldn't it be too much work to type all the cells? Does Anyone know a formula for it?
is it possible, in a function, to do something like this?
Lets say I'm in cell N7, and here's its formula:
IF (N6=$A$13,(A+1)$13,0)
-if the cell before it (N6) is equal to the value of $A$13, then I want N7 to equal the value of B13. If N6 is not equal to $A$13, then place a 0 in cell N7.
basically, I would like to tell my function to move to the next column if it meets a condition in an "IF" statement. Such as, go from column A to Column B given a certain condition. Otherwise, stay in column A until that condition is met.
I have a timesheet in excel which details the hours worked per person. It is worked out by have time started in one cell, and time finished in the next cell. (24 hour clock).
The timesheet is for a night club, so people start late, and finish early. Therfore, in the total column I have the following formula...
Time arithmetic, I have two cells representing a time range.
The first one (say: X1) is formatted using the custom format [h]:mm and contains a certain number of hours and minutes. It gets its value by summing up other cells in the same format. A typical entry could be 98:35 to represent a duration 98 hours and 35 minutes.
The second cell (say: X2) is formatted as a number with 4 decimal places after the comma, and similarily gets its value by summing up other cells in the same format. It also represents a time duration as a number of hours. A typical entry could be 202.7500 to represent a duration of 202 hours and 45 minutes (because 0.75 of an hour is 45 minutes).
I would like to calculate the hour difference between these cells, and display it as hours and minutes. In the example given, the result should be negative, i.e. -104:10.
My first approach was to use the formula X1-X2 and format the result as [h]:mm, but this gives me a #VALUE! error.
Can I use dates as argument in Boolean arithmetic? I have a list of name with their date of birth and I would like to tell who is between 18 and 25. It's easy enough with number but with dates? Excel 2007
I'm trying to come up with a MapsCo grid to "overlay" geoLoc data. Given the coordinates of a single box within a MapsCo page, I'll can figure out the others once I know how to "from this point, add .5 miles due North and mark another point; from that point, add .5 miles due East and record the next point; etc".
