  • 2. 

    Formulas or functions must begin with ____________.

    • $

    • *

    • =

    • @

    • !

    • #

    Correct Answer
    A. =
    Explanation
    Formulas or functions in most programming languages, including Excel, must begin with the "=" sign. This is because the "=" sign is used to indicate that the following text is a formula or function that needs to be evaluated. Without the "=" sign, the text would be treated as a regular string or value, rather than a formula or function. Therefore, in order to properly use formulas or functions, it is necessary to begin them with the "=" sign.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

      A B 1 3 5 2 4 6   If A5 = (A2*B1)/2, then A5= _______? (please input the number)

    Correct Answer
    10
    ten
    Explanation
    The equation A5 = (A2*B1)/2 means that A5 is equal to the product of A2 and B1, divided by 2. Since the values given for A2 and B1 are not provided, we cannot determine the exact value of A5. Therefore, the answer could be any number or even a non-numeric value like "ten".

    __________allows  text to span across multiple columns.

    • Merge & Center

    • Currency

    • Wrap Text

    • Bold

    • Orientation

    Correct Answer
    A. Merge & Center
    Explanation
    Merge & Center allows text to span across multiple columns. This feature combines the selected cells into one cell and centers the text within it. This is commonly used when creating tables or organizing data in a spreadsheet, as it helps to visually group or highlight certain information. By merging cells and centering the text, the data becomes easier to read and understand.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    What type of cell reference is this:$A$1.

    • Mixed

    • Relative

    • Absolute

    Correct Answer
    A. Absolute
    Explanation
    The cell reference $A$1 is an absolute cell reference. In Excel, an absolute cell reference is denoted by using the dollar sign ($) before the column letter and row number. This means that when the formula or reference is copied to other cells, the reference to $A$1 will always remain the same. It will not change based on the relative position of the formula or reference.

    The answer is "Numbers" and "number" because they are used to designate each row's location.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

      A B 1 2 3 2 3 2 3 1 2 4 2 2 5 1 =SUM (A1:A3) +$B$3 Please type in the value of B5 according to the given formula.

    Correct Answer
    8
    eight
    Explanation
    The formula "=SUM (A1:A3) +$B$3" is asking for the sum of the values in cells A1, A2, and A3, and then adding the value in cell B3 to it. Since the values in cells A1, A2, and A3 are 2, 3, and 2 respectively, the sum of these values is 7. Therefore, the value of B5 should be 7 + the value in B3. The answer choices given are 8 and eight, either of which could be the value in B3.

    Rate this question:

  • 8.
