To use the SUMIF function to add values based on a specific condition in Google Sheets, follow these steps:
=SUMIF(range, criteria, sum_range)
Here's a breakdown of each part of the formula:
range
is the range of cells you want to evaluate for the given condition.criteria
is the condition you want to apply. It can be a value, cell reference, or expression.sum_range
is the range of cells you want to sum if the condition is met.Note: The range
and sum_range
must be of the same size or have the same number of rows and columns.
For example, let's say you have a list of numbers in column A, and you want to sum only the values greater than 10. You may enter the following formula in a cell:
=SUMIF(A:A, ">10")
This will add up all the values in column A that are greater than 10.
You can also use a cell reference for the criteria. For instance, if you have the value 10 in cell B1 and want to sum the numbers greater than that, the formula could be:
=SUMIF(A:A, ">"&B1)
Remember to adjust the cell references and criteria based on your specific data and condition.
