When do you use mixed reference in Excel?

In most cases where people use an absolute reference, a mixed reference will do. A mixed reference will lock a column or row, but not both. Most formulas are copied either down or across, but rarely both. If a cell needs to be locked in a formula, then we lock the row when copying down or lock the column when copying across. See the related question below for more details on the different kinds of cell references.

Does text that is left-aligned have a ragged left edge?

No the left edge is even, if the left edge is ragged then it is either centered or right aligned.

How do you insert equals sign without making formula?

To get the equals sign to show in a cell you put the apostrophe before it. Anything after the apostrophe is taken literally and put into a cell. So to get the equals sign to show you put:

'=

The equals sign will then be displayed in the cell, without the apostrophe showing. You can use it to put in a full formula without the formula actually calculating. This is good if you want to see the formula and the result beside each other in two cells. Into one you put your formula starting with the equals and in the other the same formula with an apostrophe before it. In one it will do the calculation and in the other it will show the formula including the equals sign.

Which number format would you apply to a cell to show the total sales for the month?

The answer depends on the whether you are measuring the value of sales of the quantity of sales. In the latter case, it depends on whether it is a discrete variable of continuous.

Value of sales: Currency format.

Discrete quantity (eg number of cars sold): Integer number.

Continuous quanity (eg amount of fabric sold): Decimal Number.


In all three cases you will need to use a sensible number significant figures. There is not much sense in presenting sales worth millions to 2 decimal places!

How do you enter data from several different worksheets at the same time on excel?

This question is not clear. Unless you have multiple keyboards and lots of extra hands, you probably can enter data only one sheet at a time. However, if you are asking how to combine data from several sheets on a single worksheet, use the worksheet names in your formula.

=(Sheet1!A1+Sheet2!A1+Sheet3!A1)

If this did not answer your question, think about what you want to know and ask another question that is more specific.
