Based on the values in Cell A51: A55, what formula can you copy and paste in to Cells B51: B55 to return the values shown?
B. =IF(A51=”Red”, “Yes”,”No”)
C. =SUMIF(A51=”Red”, “Yes”,”No”)
D. =SHOWIF(A51=”Red”, “Yes”,”No”)
E. =IFNA(A51=”Red”,”Yes”,”No”)
The correct formula is:
B. =IF(A51="Red", "Yes", "No")
Why?
- The IF function checks if a condition is true.
- In this case, it checks if the value in A51 is
"Red". - If true, it returns
"Yes"; if false, it returns"No". - Since you want this logic to apply to B51:B55, you can copy and paste the formula down.
Why are the other options incorrect?
- A.
COUNTIF(A51="Red", "Yes", "No")→COUNTIFdoesn’t use this syntax; it counts occurrences, not return values. - C.
SUMIF(A51="Red", "Yes", "No")→SUMIFis for summing numbers based on a condition, not returning text. - D.
SHOWIF(A51="Red", "Yes", "No")→SHOWIFis not a valid Excel/Google Sheets function. - E.
IFNA(A51="Red","Yes","No")→IFNAis used to handle#N/Aerrors, not logical conditions.
