if formula

S

Sande Leonardo

been going crazy trying to do this

How do I tell one cell do =sum(b2/b3) (this works) for the divide portion

Now I want to add a formula in with it that tells it, if the number is less
than 1, put "0", if the number is greater than "0" put that number in.

Anyone know how????

=IF(SUM(B2/B3)<1, 0, SUM(B2/B3))

to avoid division by 0, you can try it this way:

=IF(B3=0, 0, IF(SUM(B2/B3)<1, 0, SUM(B2/B3)))

I just realized, why do you need to use SUM? You can just do

=IF(B3=0, 0, IF((B2/B3)<1, 0, B2/B3))

To start with, you don't need the SUM() function, as you are not summing but
dividing.
=B2/B3 will do.

What you need is =IF(B2/B3<1,0,B2/B3)

=IF(B2/B3<1,"0",B2/B3) should do the trick. I'm not sure why you had SUM in
your original forumla as it doesn't do anything, you just need to tell it to
divide the cells =b2/b3
