Creating formulas, step by step

 Select a cell
 Type the equal sign (=)
 Select a cell or type value
 Enter an arithmetic operator
 Select another cell or type value
 Press enter

For example =1+1 is the formula to calculate 1+1=2

Steps for Adding values :Creating formula formula =A1+B1

1. Select the cell C1

2. Type the equal sign (=)
3. Left click on A1, the cell that has the (309) value
4. Type the minus sign (+)
5. Left click on B1, the cell that has the (35) value
6. Hit enter
Steps for Subtracting values :Creating formula =A1-B1

1. Select the cell C1

2. Type the equal sign (=)
3. Left click on A1, the cell that has the (309) value
4. Type the minus sign (-)
5. Left click on B2, the cell that has the (35) value
6. Hit enter
 RANGES
The Name Box

The Name Box shows you the reference of which cell or range you have selected. It can also be used to select cells or
ranges by typing their values.

To select cell B2, click on it:

Selecting Multiple Cells

More than one cell can be selected by pressing and holding down CTRL or Command and left clicking the cells. Once
finished with selecting, you can let go of CTRL or Command.

example: Select the cells A2, A4, B3, B5 , C2 and C4.

 Selecting a Column
Columns are selected by left clicking it. This will select all cells in the sheet related to the column.

\\
To select column A, click on the letter A in the column bar:

Selecting a Row

Rows are selected by left clicking it. This will select all the cells in the sheet related to that row.

To select row 1, click on its number in the row bar:

Selecting the Entire Sheet

The entire spreadsheet can be selected by clicking the triangle in the top-left corner of the spreadsheet:
Selection of Ranges

To drag and mark a range, step-by-step:

1. Select a cell
2. Left click it and hold the mouse button down
3. Move your mouse pointer over the range that you want selected. The range that is marked will turn grey.
4. Let go of the mouse button when you have marked the range

Let's have a look at an example for how to mark the range A1:E10.
 FILLING
Filling is done by

1. selecting a cell
2. clicking the fill icon
3. selecting the range using drag and mark while holding the left mouse button down.

The fill icon is found in the bottom right corner of the cell and has the icon of a small square. Once you hover over it
your mouse pointer will change its icon to a thin cross.

Click the fill icon and hold down the left mouse button, drag and mark the range that you want to cover.

In this example, cell A1 was selected and the range A1:A10 was marked

Fill Copies
Filling can be used for copying. It can be used for both numbers and words.

Let's have a look at numbers first.

In this example we have typed the value A1(1):

In this example we have typed A1(Hello World).

Filling the range A1:A10 creates ten copies of "Hello World":

 Fill Sequences
how to count from 1 to 10.
i. Typing A1(1).
ii. Type the value (1) into the cell A2, which is what we have in A1. Now we have the same values in both A1 and A2.
iii. Use the fill function from A1:A10.
iv. Change the value of A2(1) to A2(2) Now fill A1:A10 again.

Now we have counted from 1 to 10

Steps for creating sequence :2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20

1. Type A1(2) and A2(4).

2. Now, fill A1:A10.

It counts from 2 to 20 in the range A1:A10.

Sequence of Dates

1. Typing A1(10/28/2025)
2. fill the range A1:A10
The fill function has filled 10 days from A1(10/28/2025) to A10(11/6/2025)
 Combining Words and Letters
1. Type A1(Hello 1) and A2(Hello 2)
2. Fill A1:A10.

The result is that it counts from A1(Hello 1) to A10(Hello 10)
