I’ve personally seen this on reports where it’s one-millionth of a fraction out between two separately calculated figures. There may be cases where some cross-referencing of figures is fractionally out. Note DATA B and DATA C appear identical, yet there is a mix of TRUE and FALSE’s across each column why is this, you may wonder?įurther inspection and changing the cell formats to 2 decimal places reveals evidence of cell formatting. When using a numbers test, it is vitally important for your sanity to note cell formatting, see the example below that uses the same formulas in the first example. Excel will translate this YES into a TRUE result. I think we can all conclude that answer is a resounding YES. Each formula in these columns is checking if the number found on each row in column B is LESS THAN, EQUAL TO or LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO the number found on the same row in column C.Ībove cell, F6 is selected, and the formula is =B6<=C6 if you evaluate the formula manually, you get this =5<=6, so IS 5 LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 6. The above table shows < in Column D, = in Column E and combined <= in Column F. = combined means IS LESS THAN OR IS EQUAL TO Examplesīefore we look at several examples, let’s look at the above in one basic version.

As we’ll be looking at COUNTIF and IF see below, please refer to those articles for a full run down and explanation of the syntax involved This basic function can be used to integrate into other Excel functions such as SUMIF and IF functions we will look at these examples below.
