I must determine out of 52 radom numbers the average of the 48 highest even
if one or more of the lowest numbers is repeated 7 times without exempting
the 3 out of the 7 that must be included in the 48 to extract the average.
I want to pick the top five numbers out of a random list of numbers and get its average. What is the best way to go about doing this?

I have a group of 8 numbers and I have to pick the 6 highest of them and make an average out of this 6.
How can I do that, using formulas?
I have a list of people with 10 years of salary history for each (in ten consecutive columns on the spreadsheet).
I need to calculate the HIGHEST 3 consecutive year average salary for each (if they have less than 3 years with salary, then it should just average the years the do have, be it 1 or 2 years).
Here is the kicker: some people have breaks in service (for these years, there is a blank in that entry). These years should be ignored and skipped in calculating the avergaes.
So if someone had salary figures in years 1, 2, and 4, but a blank in year three, the average of years 1, 2, and 4 would constitute one three year average (whether or not it is the highest is a whole other matter...).
I have been round-and-round the best way of doing this. I was thinking of maybe creating a UDF that calculates a three average, then do it up to 8 times (one for each starting year) in 8 "helper columns", and taking the highest average.
I have a column that is filled with different names. Some names appear more than once. There is one name in fact that appears four times.
I am looking for a formula, or VBA if that's necessary, that will look through the range Y2:Y50, and return a value of 4, because the person that has the most duplicates, her name appears 4 times.
If everyone's name appeared only once, except for a person whose name was in that range twice, then the formula would return a 2.
Example.xlsI have a list of people with 10 years of salary history for each (in ten consecutive columns on the spreadsheet). I need to calculate in excel the highest 5 consecutive year average salary for each (if they have less than 5 years with salary, then it should just average the years the do have). Some people have breaks in service (for five years, there is a blank in that entry). These years should be ignored and skipped in calculating the avergaes.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need a cell formula that will (a) identify the highest N values in an above specified column range, (b) color the interior of those N cells (I suspect that this is not possible), and most importantly (c) return the average value of N corresponding cells, where the corresponding cells are located on the same rows as the identified N high value cells but in a specified column to the left (not necessarily adjacent)
Does anybody know what this formula would look like?

? = average of B1,B3,B5 where (N = 3) and (specified column to the left = B)
E11 through E24 contains numbers and a few errors (#N/A) that need to persist (the errors need to show).
E10 needs to show the average of the numbers that are in E11 through E24, and just ignore the errors.
I have many columns like that - where the errors need to show and I need to show an average of the number/values that do appear, ignoring the errors.
I'm trying to wrap up a spreadsheet and I'm trying to figure out how to have my formula use the highest of 2 numbers when making a calculation.
For example:
If:
Cell A1 = 5000
Cell B1 = 3828
I want the formula to use A1 in this case. However, if the total of B1 = 6000, I want the formula to use B1 instead of A1 in the calculation. (A1 = 5000 will always be a constant/base).
Is there a way to average only the X highest number of scores in a row?
What about if there is an additional condition, i.e., if the column

I came up with a way to extract entire row corresponding to the highest number in L column and to post it in the different sheet.
I have 2 issues to solve though.
1. I need to extract only 13 ranges corresponding to the highest number in L column - ( A through M) - not entire row.
2. I need to do the same with the second and the third highest numbers of the same column L.
This is what I have so far:
Sub extract()
Dim first As Range
Set first = Range("L" & WorksheetFunction.Match(WorksheetFunction.Max(Columns("L")), Columns("L"), 0))
first.EntireRow.Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Result").Select
Range("A1").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats, Operation:=xlNone, _
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
End Sub
I am looking for a formula that will add the 8 highest values in a range of up to 20 cells. The range may have fewer than 8 values in some cases in which case the sum of all those values will be returned.
Thus a row with these values will yield the following output (bold denotes highest 8 values):
8, 28, 45, 13, 17, 19, 21, 30, 47, 8, 15
47+45+30+28+21+19+17+15= 222
I am looking for a way to find a highest (and/or) lowest value in a list of numbers. The list keeps getting longer and after a certain point I will need the 2 highest (or lowest), then the 3 highest (or lowest). I know MIN and MAX will find the high and low, but how do I find the 2nd highest, etc?

View 9 Replies View RelatedSuppose I have a column filled with numbers in fraction. And correspondingly I have a specific name for every 10 numbers. I want to find out which is the maximum among the 10. For this I could use the "MAX" function in excel. Similarly I have to find the maximum among the next 10 numbers. Since I have about 200 such numbers under 20 different names and eight such sheets (10 numbers per name), it becomes difficult to type the formula and select the range everytime. I would like to know if there is any shortcut for getting this highest number among the 10 numbers.

I have thousands of drawings listed in colums and each in the row has revisions P01 to P10 for Proposal and C01 to C10 For Construction. Is there a way of getting the highest revision of all listed in a row without turning them into numbers when P is older than C , but 1 is older than 10? MAX function doesnt count when value consists of both - number and letter.
Manualy selecting the highes revision will cost me weeks... and brain damage.. as I have thousands of drawings and more are coming...
I need to know how I can create a formula which will sum a selection of the highest numbers in a range of data. So for example, if I have a row of 10 cells each containing dfferent numbers, and I want to take the 7 highest values from there and get the sum of these values, how do I go about this?
I've tried using the LARGE command but can only get an individual figure.
I am trying to generate a list of the 5 highest and 5 lowest numbers from a list of scores that range from 1 to 10. I have found the highest and lowest absolute values (numbers over 7.5, and less than 5, out of 10), but I would also like to generate the 5 highest and lowest relative numbers, ie. if there are no scores over 7.5, then the 5 next highest numbers. I have used if/then formulas for the absolute highest and lowest numbers, and a rank/countif formula to rank them. I have no idea how to generate a list of the "relative strengths and weaknesses".

I have two sheets:
Sheet one has dates, my prices on each of those days, and the fields h1 h2 h3 h4 (h1 is the closest higher number, h2 is the next closet higher number, etc.) and l1 l2 l3 l4 (l1 is the closest lower number, etc. etc.)
Sheet two has certain dates and prices of a competitor's prices.
What I'm trying to do is two things (see attached):
1) find the four closest higher and four closest lower prices (if available)
2) use only the prices that are on or before the date in question.
I've tried combinations like LARGE and OFFSET and so far it is not getting me anywhere.
Can this be done???
I have a list full of different IDs with different version numbers (This format: AKH123.1).
I'm trying to clean the list - removing all duplicate IDs but leaving only the largest version number.
I managed to remove the last digit using LEN/VLOOKUP and removing duplicates, but leaving only the largest version number is too tricky for me. I've thought about trying something with LARGE but can't wrap my mind around it.
My thought process went like this: I want to find all occurrences of "AKH123" and return the largest one.
The list contains about 8000 entries and this would save en enormous amount of work.
Here is a tiny portion of the list:
AKH450.1
AKH451.1
AKH451.3
AKH451.4
AKH451.5
AKH451.6
AKH451.7

I need to be able to select all the rows or ranges that contain a common value 1's and then loop back and select the next group 2's of rows until the row or column contains "".
I have a spreadsheet wtih a number of rows that contain answers to different criertia in each column.
The row may therefore have cells that either have numbers or letters.
Column A will be the title of the row.
I want to write a function to find the average value of the numbers in any row with title 'x'.
So it would look down column A, and look for those called 'x', and then average all the numbers across all those rows.
I have tried to use =averageif, but I think the fact there are letters in the cells being assessed (which I just want to be ignored) creates an error.
