I may not even be calling it the right thing. but let me explain what i'm looking to do. i've got three columns on a spreadsheet and i need to be able to add two columns together and then divide the sum by another column. so something like this:
4+4/636 = 79.5
d2+f2 (divided by) h2 = 79.5
I have to divide two columns. Sometimes there is a zero in one of the columns. Now, I realize that nothing can be divided by zero, but isn't there a way to show a zero instead of the #ref symbol???
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would normally sort out using Text to Columns, but I can't in this case as the remaining elements can vary.
I have a list of names with Forename and Surname and then the elements after that vary.
Names are written in one cell under a single column like so:
John Smith 13/04/2000
James Smith 123 123 1233
Jane Smith 07122 12345
Another Smith AB99 9CD
All I want to do is end up with 3 columns of data,
Forname | Surname | Other
Is it possible to use a formula to make the breaks into each column at the first 2 spaces only, therefore the contents after the second space would just end up in one cell?
Im wondering if this can be done in excel..
2 columns
if the value in column O=$0.00 then I need to divide the adjacent cell in column L by 0.3 or multiply by 30%
this is the way I was trying to do this...
=IF((O2:O6722)=0,DIVIDE(L2:L6722).3)
I have tried it several different ways and cannot get it to work - is it my formula or can this even be done because I can't reference just one cell?
I'm trying to divide the value in column A by the data in B:AO using VBA, however I need to repeat this for many rows (the values differ for each row).
There could also be a different amount of rows with data in each time, and there is also a single blank row after every 18 rows with data.
In A1 I have the value 60 I want it in 1:00:00 format
What I do is, I divide that by A1/24*60 and the copy that and paste-special-value on A1
Is there any way to convert the number 60 into 1:00:00 format without having to do calculation in temporary columns?
I am trying to loop through Column Q2:Q2000, and divide the adjacent Row R2:HS2 by the value in the corresponding Q column.
ie. cells R2: HS2 should all be divided by Q2
cells R3:HS3 should all be divided by Q3
etc until R2000:HS2000 are divided by Q2000
I presume that i would require an initial loop to scroll through the column and a seperate loop to scroll through the row values, but i cannot get my head around how this is done.
I have attached a sheet as an example, as i am trying to Divide a cell by the number of populated cells in that column e.g column (A) has a table of 16 but only has 13 populated cells in that column, the sum would be something like this =sum(A18/13. Sometimes the column will have less and at times more populated.

I have a large spreadsheet converted from pdf whose data still appears in A4 reading format.
I need to move part columns of data from 6 columns to form 1 large column in column A.
For example, move range B8 to B76 beneath range A8 to A76 and range C8 to C76 beneath that etc, page by page working through all 270 pages !
Also need to delete unnecessary 'page headers' throughout as in rows 2-6
I have a excelsheet that looks like this:
Column A | Column B | Column C
Los Angeles | Fire Dept | 3

New York | Internal Services | 100
New York | Public Works | 7
Chicago | Health Services | 15
Chicago | Public Works | 56
Chicago | Social Services | 4

I have conditional formatting on a cell based on a formula, when I entered the solution of "if then 0 " but the cell doesn't see the result as a 0, if I manually enter the 0 the conditional format works.
I even tried putting the formula in another cell and then referencing to that cell, still didn't work...
The "divide by zero error won't trigger the conditional either......

If I have a value of lets say 53, I need it broken down into equal and whole numbers across the spread sheet with the last one being the remaining value.
Currently for example in cell F5 I have a value of 41 that I need to break down so
I have done the following:
In Cell P5 =IF(F5>=25,F5-21,F5)
Then in Cell Z5 =IF(P5>=25,P5-21,P5) and this goes on until I have zero value from the original value in the last cell can i not do this all in one formula and have the results populate in other cells.
I am creating a 'weekly average spreadsheet' (Excel 2007) for a teacher. It has a column for each student's name and his test grade for each day (M-F). The last column gives his weekly average.
She also needs an average for all the students' for the week (vertically). My formula is correct, i.e., =AVERAGE(H2:H11). However, I'm getting a divide by zero error because I have some blank rows above my formula (so she can add new students' names as they come.
How can I get rid of the divide by zero error so she can see the running averages as she inputs grades (but still leaving empty rows for new names)?
I have just started to try and learn VBA for excel. the resource I have been using are books and the WEB. Some how, not sure how there was/is some code where all enteries in all worksheets are divided by 100, i.e if I enter 2222 after clicking the enter button the result in the cell is 22.22. I have deleted all macros and code however the problem still exist.

Im getting an error on the second to last row, Ive never tried to divide using VBA before and I have no idea how to!
Also the amount im trying to divide will always be in the format hh:mm
I have a database that requires me to find the average of some data over several columns, however if one of the values I have to divide by is a zero I get a 'Can't Divide By Zero Error' is there any way to override this ? So that if a Divide by Zero Occurs, instead of returning a 'Can't Divide By Zero Error' it just replaces it with a Zero instead ?

View 10 Replies View RelatedExcel has a QUARTILE function to divide a population into quartiles. I'm trying to do something similar but divide a population into deciles (i.e., every 10%).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a data extract that gets generated at the end of each month that I post into the 'Full Extract' tab on my example spreadsheet.
writing a macro that will divide the various items in the 'Extract' based on the Reference, (some items may need to go into multiple sheets)
then draw down the formulas that need to be applied to the item.
I'm lost on VBA, but I have been successful at recording a few extremely simple macros. I have a number of pdf statements that I have run through OCR, and the OCR often misses the decimal point so that 43.85 comes out as 4385. (this is in dollars, so everything has 2 decimals).
These cells are usually pretty easy to spot, so I want to select that cell, press a keystroke or 2, and divide the value in that cell by 100. I assumed that by selecting "relative cell references", and recording a macro with the keystrokes "<F2>/100<HOME>=" (without the quotes, of course), I would accomplish that. But instead, it places a constant in that cell, with the value obtained in the cell where I recorded the macro.
=1/25%
is it that you want a UDF
Function MyFun(a,b)
MyFun = a / b
End Function
Usage:
=MyFun(1, 25%)

I really struggle with the following scenario:
A1=5 B1=4 C1=0 D1=0 E1=5
What I want to do is to divide the sum of those cells with the number of cells with a value > 0 (but all cells must be controlled to check if the value > 0).
In real life it's easy to see that I want to do 14/3 (A1>0, B1>0 and E1>0 equals three cells), but how to write this formula in Excel?
How to divide two cells if there is no text in the first?

View 2 Replies View RelatedFallowed EXCEL instruction, for >DIVIDE TEXT ACROSS CELS< but result is not what it should be.
1, I select . >FIXED WIDTH< Than I create ONE !! >BREAK LINE<
2, click NEXT / FINISH.
3, MY text is split but not to two column but to MANY COLUMNS?
Repeat many times, always careful that ONLY ONE break line selected.
Also when I first select. >FIXED WIDTH< and click next.
My text is already market with many >BREAK LINES< so I have to first
delete all, seems to me strange.
