You use the cell reference of the top left cell of the range, followed by a colon, followed by the bottom right cell. So a range going from B4 to D12 would be specified like this:
B4:D12
It will always appear in something, like a function, rather than by itself. So for example, it could be any of these:
=SUM(B4:D12)
=AVERAGE(B4:D12)
=COUNT(B4:D12)

What is cell reference box?
A cell reference is how an individual cell is identified. It is the column of the cell and the row of the cell. So cell N45 is in column N and row 45. The name box shows what cell or named range is currently selected, making it easier to know where you are on the spreadsheet. It is also used to go to a cell or range by typing the cell reference or the name of the range into it.
What is an Excel name box?
The name box shows the address of the current cell selected or the name of that cell if a special name has been given to it. It can also show the name of a range. You can type in a cell reference or a range name in the name box and it will bring you to that location. The name box appears to the left of the formula bar.
What is the difference between single cell referencing and range cell referencing?
The question answers itself. Single cell referencing is when you reference a single cell. Range referencing is when you reference a range of cells.
How do you know a range is active?

What is the difference between adjacent and non adjacent cell range in Excel?
In Excel, an adjacent cell range is the selection of nearby cell range that is touching another range, but is still a separate range. A non-adjacent cell range is the selection of cell range that is not touching any other cell range. In either case, it can only be when more than one range is selected. After selecting one range, pressing and holding the Ctrl key while selecting a range can select another range.
