Sumifs Formula in MS Excel

 Sumifs Formula in MS Excel

The SUMIFS formula in MS Excel is used to sum the values in a range based on multiple criteria. It allows you to add up values in a range of cells that meet multiple conditions.

The syntax of the SUMIFS formula is as follows:

SUMIFS(sum_range, criteria_range1, criteria1, [criteria_range2, criteria2, ...])

Where:

• sum_range: The range of cells to be summed.
• criteria_range1: The first range of cells to be evaluated by the criteria.
• criteria1: The first criteria to be met.
• [criteria_range2, criteria2, ...]: Optional. Additional ranges and criteria to be met.

For example, if you have a table of data in the range A1:C10, with column A containing names, column B containing dates, and column C containing values, you can use the SUMIFS formula to sum the values for a specific name and date:

=SUMIFS(C1:C10,A1:A10,"John",B1:B10,"1/1/2023")

This would return the sum of all values in the range C1:C10 that are associated with the name "John" in the range A1:A10 and the date "1/1/2023" in the range B1:B10.
