  • What must every formula in a spreadsheet start with? an equal to sign

Intermediate[edit | edit source]

  • Explain what the "autofill" feature of spreadsheets does.
  • The cell A3 contains the value 5. You want to add a formula into another cell that multiplies the value in A3 by 100. Write the formula required.
  • The cells in column A contain prices (such as 5.95, 7.95). Add a formula to the cell B3 that will calculate the GST (10 percent of the corresponding value in column A). Bonus 2 points: Add a formula in C3 to calculate the total price including the GST.
