Level 6: Work mode Exercise 74 of 87 Pro

Share of tasks done

An Excel formula exercise from Formuladrill. Solve it with a formula bar on a live sheet in your browser, and it is checked the moment you submit.

The task

From Marco, the PMO lead: "For the status meeting I need the share of tasks marked Done for each project, in F2:F4 as a percentage. The task list keeps growing, so count the tasks with formulas, do not type the totals."

What this exercise teaches

A completion rate is a ratio of two counts, and both must come from the same list so new rows flow through. Typing 4 as the number of Apollo tasks is the mistake this replaces.

A hint if you get stuck

Done tasks for the project: COUNTIFS on project and status. All tasks for the project: COUNTIF on project. Divide the first by the second and lock the ranges with $.

Functions used: COUNTIF, COUNTIFS
