The power of Excel 365 lies in the support given when using formulas with your data, which automatically update when the underlying data changes to ensure your calculations are always up to date. In this course, you will observe how to perform simple and more advanced calculations with formulas, including the use of built-in formulas such as SUM and COUNT, as well as working with formulas that include IFS, SWITCH, MAXIFS, MINIFS, COUNTA, OFFSET, COUNTIFS, MOD, QUOTIENT, and AVERAGEIFS. You will start by discovering how to perform simple calculations within an individual cell; then explore how to use formulas to create automated cumulative totals in a table and insert subtotals. Following this, you will learn how to use different formulas to count cells in a range. Learn how to perform logical operations such as IFS and SWITCH, MAXIFS, and MINIFS, and keep your data up to date with COUNTA and OFFSET formulas. Finally, you will explore how to configure default formula options, find data with multiple conditions, factorize the results of a division, and calculate average values under different criteria. In order to practice what you have learned, you will find practice exercises and samples in the Course Contents pane or in the Resources section.
