Excel's MIN function works much the same as the recently mention MAX function. What
the MIN function does is find the smallest value in a given list of data.
To find out the details on how to use the MIN function, including an example, read the
Note: For help with this example, see the image to the right.
4. Choose More Functions > Statistical from the ribbon to open the function drop
down list.
6. Drag select cells C1 to C6 on the spreadsheet to enter the range into the dialog
box.
7. Click OK.
8. The answer 114 should appear in cell C7 as it is the largest number in the selected
range.
9. The complete function = MIN (C1 : C6) appears in the formula bar above the
worksheet.
USES OF MAX FUNCTION
The Excel MAX function is used to find the largest value in the
selected range of cells or a given list of arguments. Text and blank
entries are not included in the calculations of the MAX function.
Applies To:
The Max function is a very useful function that has many applications. What it does is
find the largest value in a given list of data.
This short tutorial on Excel's MAX Function will give you all the details on using this
function.
• Performing calculations
What the above example does is test to see if the value in cell A5 is
less than 29,701. If it is, the function multiplies the value in cell A5 by
15%(the "value if true" argument). If the value in A5 is greater than
or equal to 29,701, then the amount in cell A5 is multiplied by 25%
(the "value if false" argument).
• Nested IF Functions
The IF function can be set up to enter data into a target cell. This data
could then be used in other calculations. For example, a quiz setup in
Excel could use IF functions to determine if the student’s responses to
questions are correct.
If they are correct, the function returns a mark for that question. If the
student gets the question wrong, a zero is returned in the mark
column. At the bottom of the mark column, the SUM function can be
used to total the student’s score on the quiz.
