What to Focus On

  • A formula must begin with =.
  • Formulas can use cell references, values, operators, text, and functions.
  • The result appears in the cell, while the formula appears in the formula bar.

  • Functions are built-in formulas.
  • Arguments are the cell references or values given inside parentheses.
  • SUM adds all numbers in a range or list.

  • Charts convert worksheet data into a visual form.
  • The Insert tab is used to start chart creation.
  • The chart wizard was removed in Excel 2007 and was not restored in Excel 2010.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A formula can start directly with numbers or a function name without the equal to sign.

SUM, AVERAGE, MIN, and MAX can take any number of arguments without limit.

SUM, AVERAGE, MIN, and MAX all have exactly the same syntax pattern and the first argument is always number1.

Memory Tips

A formula begins with the equal to sign

SUM adds all numbers in a range

SUMIF adds only values that match a criterion

AVERAGE gives the arithmetic mean
