When you're done, you'll see the result of 170.  \n3 Here's another way to add, using a shortcut key. Select the yellow cell under the amounts for meat.  \n4 Press Alt first. Then, press Enter.  \n5 Now add only the numbers over 50 . Select the last yellow cell. Type =SUMIF(D11:D15,\">50\") and then press Enter. The result is 100.  \nDive down for more detail  \nMore about the SUM function  \n\n| In some of the above tips, we taught you how to use the SUM function. Here are more details about it. Double-click a yellow cell on the right, and then read along with the text below.\u003Cbr>If the SUM function could talk, it would say this:\u003Cbr>=SUM(D38:D41)\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Sum up the following:\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>…the values in cells D38, D39, D40, and D41 .\u003Cbr>Here's another way it can be used: |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| \u003Cbr>Sum the\u003Cbr>following:\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>…the value in\u003Cbr>cell D48… | \u003Cbr>…the values\u003Cbr>in cells G48, G49, G50, and G51 ...\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>…and\u003Cbr>100. |\n| \u003Cbr>=SUM(D48,G48:G51,100)\u003Cbr>The formula above uses the following:\u003Cbr>• A single cell reference, which is the \"address\" or \"name\" of a cell. D48 is the single cell reference in the formula above.\u003Cbr>• A range of cells, which is a series of cells starting at one cell and ending at another. G48:G51 is the range of cells in the formula.\u003Cbr>• A constant. The constant in this formula is the number 100. |  |\n\nMore about the SUMIF function  \nWe also showed you the SUMIF function at the top of this sheet. The SUMIF function sums up totals based on a criterion. If the SUMIF function could talk, it would say this:  \n=SUMIF(D73:D77,\">50\")  \n...and if the value is greater than 50, sum it up.  \nSum up some values based on this criterion:  \n....Look through these cells...  \nNOTE: If you find you are making a lot of SUMIF formulas, you might find that a  \nf you f are making a lot of SUMIF formulas, you might f PivotTable is a better solution. See the PivotTable worksheet for more information.  \ndifferent. Specifically, the sum criteria is \">=50\"means greater than or equal to 50. There are ot operators you can use like \"\u003C=50\" which is less t equal to 50. And there's \"\u003C>50\" which is not equ 50.","cbCaidNkBUxkncsW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidNkBUxkncsW","pdf",959210,"English","# Add numbers like a champ\n## Dive down for more detail\n## More about the SUM function\n## More about the SUMIF function","[{\"question\":\"How do I use the SUM function to add numbers in Excel?\",\"answer\":\"Select the target cell and enter a SUM formula such as =SUM(D4:D7), then press Enter to calculate the total.\"},{\"question\":\"How do I use SUMIF to add only numbers that meet a condition?\",\"answer\":\"Select the target cell and use a formula like =SUMIF(D11:D15,\\\"\\u003e50\\\"), which sums values in the range that are greater than 50.\"},{\"question\":\"What do cell references, ranges, and constants mean in a SUM formula?\",\"answer\":\"A single cell reference points to one cell (e.g., D48), a range covers multiple cells (e.g., G48:G51), and a constant is a fixed value used in the formula (e.g., 100).\"}]","Add numbers like a champ - Excel SUM and SUMIF tips | PDF"]
