Working With Percentages
Aug 20, 2008
I have a column of data with students marks ranging from zero to 78(S17:S74). I need to work out the mean score of the bottom 20% of all the scores achieved - Is this possible. I'm no expert so please keep it as simple as possible! I'm working with Windows XP and Excel 2002.

I have 100's of cells with various formulas similar to this: =U7*9.57. U7 Being the cell with the number of hours worked and 9.57 being the hourly rate. Fairly simple so far. Now there has been a 5% pay rise so unless i get another formula to add 5% on to all these cells i will have to manualy change each hourly pay to the correct value, something i dont want to do. So my question is can i do something like =U7*9.57 then another formula to add 5% on to the 9.57, then i can copy the formula down all the other cells?????

I need a formula to create the following:
In Cell F5 is 26, so the percentage should be 101% (100+1). How can I modify the below to add 1% when the number goes over 100%?
Do I have to create two columns? one for the below and one if the F6 is over 100%?
IF(F6="N/A","N/A",IF(F6>=25,1,IF(F6>=19,0.8,IF(F6>=13,0.6,IF(F6>=7,0.4,IF(F6>=1,0.2,IF(F6

I am monitoring the balance in my Allocated Pension fund, via the WWW.
In particular, I am recording the profits (disregarding costs, outflows, etc.) as ANNUALISED PERCENTAGES (a new line, for each week).
My formula is:
=(accumulated profits/principal)*(365/elapsed days)
Questions:
Will my formula remain valid, when “elapsed days” exceed 365?
If not, is there a FUNCTION that can handle my problem. And
What would the function’s ARGUMENTS be?

I'm sure this will be an easy calculation for most of you...........
If I have two numbers, ie. 390 and 217, how can I calculate the difference
between the two figures as a percentage? (These two figures represent sales
in two months and I need to know the difference in percentage terms).

I would like a way to use conditional formatting to highlight percentages that are over 50%. The problem is that I have other numbers in the same column that are not percentages but I would like to ignore them for highlighting purposes? Can this be done without sorting the columns?
eg.
345- ignore
Ken- ignore
2500- ignore
45.6%- do not highlight
65- ignore
92%- highlight

=IF(A2-B2,(B2/A2))
The simple formula above calculates percentage which basically in this example, 159-90 divded 159% which equals 56.60%. What i need the formula to recognize is if both the entries are 159 which should show 100%. Its to show error rates by the way. Percentage wise.

Am trying to do a formula to work out a percentage of one figure from another, cannot for the life of me think it through properly!
So in
Cell J73 I have the net income and in cells J75 +J77 I have the total outgoings.
I want a formula that works out the percentage outgoings, so if someone is earning £100 and they have £20 outgoings, that is 20% of their earnings.

I am trying to combine to cells containing percentages, however when I do the percentages turn into decimals. I have tried using the text funtion, but that just returns the full number 1, no decimals or percentages.

I work at a library and have been asked for help by the Asst. Director. The problem is, I have next to no Excel experience, just what I've been reading in the Help files and Online.
We are using Excel 2003 and running XP. Here is his predicament: he has an excel document that lists the books we have ordered from a publisher. Column I has the MSRP for the book and Column J has the discounted price for the book. We are trying to get Column L to show the percentage of the discount that we received. This is what i've come up with:
example for line 255 typed in as formula for L: =1-7.95/14.98
It comes out correct when I type in the formula as I show above, but when I try typing in the formula (as it should look:=1-J255/I255) , i get an error message: #VALUE! ...

I have a table of data with names across the top and number of weeks down the left. The table lists amounts of money those names earned during the respective weeks. It looks something like this:
Mike Dan Bill Carl
400 500 600 700
800 900 1000 800
700 600 500 400
In a seperate worksheet within the same workbook, I have 3 columns of data. The first column is a name. The second column is a criteria. In the third column, I am trying to look up the value of 8 specified weeks of earnings of the name I put in column 1 and multiply those earnings by a percentage based on the criteria in column 2. Then sum the products.
I have a table of the 8 percentages I am trying to apply. There are 7 different percentage applications.
So if I am looking up Mike's earnings during those 8 specified weeks and the criteria in column 2 is "B", then I want to apply the appropriate column of percentages to those 8 looked up earnings, Multply them and then Add them.
Up until now, I have been trying to use some hybrid of HLOOKUP, SUMPRODUCT, and IF.

I have data that I import from another source into excel and it pulls over like this
3866.00%
435.00%
125.00%
1254.00%
I want to remove the % since these aren't actually percentages, the report we pull from has them listed incorrectly and cannot be changed since it is software driven, not excel driven. The problem is simply remove the % changes the number to 38.66 instead of leaving it at 3866.

I have a row of formulas that calculates information into a percentage. As you input info, a percentage is created in the cell. Those cells that do not yet have information entered still show " DIV/0" or something like that.
I need a formula that will average all the percentages, but the problem is, it's trying to also average the formulas with the percentages, so I currently get an error.

Input cell: a number from 1 - 100
Output cell:
If input is 1, output is 5.5%
add 0.5% until 10.
add 1% from 11 - 20
add 1.5% from 21-30
add 2% from 31-40
keep adding 0.5% every 10, until 100
100 = 280%

I'm trying to get a scroll bar to change a percentage value. My percents are to the hundredth. I understand how to adjust the properties to get it to use whole numbers... but i am trying to adjust my smallchange by .01% and large change by .1%
is this possible? or is there a workaround for it? i've only ever used scroll bars for whole numbers.

I'm brand new to this forum, so please forgive me in advance. I am hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction. I got a request from my boss and it's something I've never done in Excel and far more advanced than anything I've tried to do.
In my spreadsheet, Columns B-BD are server names, and Rows 2-13 are program names. Inside the corresponding cells all have to display as percentages, and we are trying to display what percentage of each server is being used by each program. In Row 14, each column must total to be 100%. That part is easy, I already have that all setup.
However, the next step requires that each server is assigned a monetary value - one of two monetary values for Virtual or Physical server. Then, somehow I need Excel to calculate the monetary value for each percentage.
For example: if Column B is Virtual, and Row 14 totals up to equal 100%, it also equals $1,000. Say Cell B4 is equal to 50% and B5 is equal to 50%, each cell is also equal to $500. Easy enough in theory, but how should I execute this so that these cells stay in % format, but Column BE titled "Total Cost" displays the monetary value for each Program (row)?
I'm pretty sure there will be some kind of formula so I guess that's what I'm asking... how to calculate it?
I'll attach a screen shot to show you the gist of how it looks so far ...

I have two issues:
1, How do I calculate the original value of something if it has dropped say 9.3%
Ex Stock value 5.56 down 7.4%. How do I calculate its original value.
2, I have copied some numerical data from a website, on one computer when I drop that data into an excel sheet it falls into separate cells allowing me to manipulate it, on another computer I drop it into an excel spreadsheet and all the data goes into one cell not allowing me to manipulate it.
I was wondering is there a setting on one excel spreadsheet that I am inadvertantly not using on the other.

Columns O,P and Q should show a "Y" if Column N has the percentage (the percentages shown at the top of those three columns) over the value in column D. I hope this makes sense!

I am trying despeartely to finish this out. Here is the deal. I created a pivot table (see attached). The issue is that I need the numbers in the red boxes to be a percentage of the total number below - so the 2 should be a percentage of the 9 (22%) and the 3 should be 100% and the 7 should be 78%. I cannot seem to get this to work. Also, there are multiple rescue groups that need this and each needs to be the % of its own total number of animals.

I need to plot percentages over time in a line graph in excel. I don't want to have to do a percentage equation in the spreadsheet, I just want excel to take two sets of values and display the percentage in the chart. For example, I need B1 as a percentage of B2 for week 1, C1 as a percentage of C2 for week 2, etc....
