These seven formulas cover the bulk of what you'll do in Excel.

• SUM calculates the total of selected numbers. Example: =SUM(B2:B20) adds all values in that range.
• AVERAGE calculates the arithmetic average. Handy for analysing test scores or sales figures.
• COUNT ignores blank cells and text. Perfect for tracking completed entries.
• MIN and MAX spot outliers instantly. =MIN(E1:E100) returns the lowest; =MAX does the opposite.
• IF creates logical decisions in cells. =IF(F2>100,"High","Low") labels values automatically.
• VLOOKUP retrieves data from another column. Essential for cross-referencing lists.

Mastering these seven formulas unlocks most spreadsheet tasks.
