How to find the maximum value in a range of cells with the MAX function in Google Sheets?

To find the maximum value in a range of cells using the MAX function in Google Sheets, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open Google Sheets and navigate to the sheet that contains the data.
  2. Select the cell where you want to display the maximum value.
  3. Type the following formula: =MAX(range), replacing "range" with the range of cells you want to evaluate. For example, if you want to find the maximum value in cells A1 to A10, the formula would be =MAX(A1:A10).
  4. Press Enter to calculate the maximum value. The result will be displayed in the selected cell.

By using the MAX function, Google Sheets will evaluate the range of cells and return the highest value within that range.
