Google Sheets Formula Creation

User Requirement Interpretation

You have requested a Google Sheets formula, but the initial input seems to include HTML syntax instead. To assist you effectively, I will provide a general example using a commonly used formula. If you can clarify your requirements or provide a specific data scenario, I can tailor the formula accordingly.

Example Formula: SUMIF

Formula Overview

The SUMIF function is used to sum values in a range that meet specified criteria.

Syntax

SUMIF(range, criterion, [sum_range])

• range: The range of cells that you want to apply the criteria to.
• criterion: The condition that must be met in order to sum the corresponding cells.
• sum_range (optional): The actual cells to sum. If omitted, Google Sheets sums the cells in the range.

Practical Example

Assume you have a dataset as follows:

To sum the amounts corresponding to Category 'A':

Formula

=SUMIF(A2:A5, "A", B2:B5)

Explanation

1. A2:A5: This is the range where the criteria (Category) will be checked.
2. "A": This criterion specifies that you want to sum amounts where the category is 'A'.
3. B2:B5: This is the range of values that will sum based on the criteria met in A2:A5.

Expected Outcome

The result of the formula =SUMIF(A2:A5, "A", B2:B5) will return 40, since it sums 10 + 30.

Conclusion

The SUMIF function effectively demonstrates how to sum data based on specified criteria in Google Sheets.
