Calculating hours between 35 and 40

N

Nucera

We have a 35 hour work week. I am trying to calculate the number of hours
between 35-40, then number of hours between 35-40 if over 40, and if under
35, then it shows 0. I can do it with 2 formulas on seperate lines then
doing an IF statement, but waswondering if it is possible to do it as 1
function.

Thanks.

=MEDIAN(0,A2-35,5) if you are working in hours,
or =MEDIAN(0,A2-35/24,5/24) if you are working in Excel times.

Try something like the following, with the number of hours in A1:

=IF(A1<35,"Less Than 35: "&A1,IF(A1<40,"Between 35 and 40:
"&A1,"Greater Than 40: "&A1))

Hi,

With the formula as stated you couldn't tell if 3 hours represented over 40
or between 35 and 40. So it sounds like what you need is

=IF(A1>40,A1-40&" hours over 40",IF(A1>35,A1-40&" hours over 35",0))
