    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The Save As command allows the user to save an existing workbook with a new name or in a different location on the disk. It does not save the workbook with its current name and save location.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The statement is true because there are multiple ways to clear the active cell in Excel. It can be done using the Ribbon, which provides various options to manipulate cells and their contents. Alternatively, the keyboard can be used by pressing the delete key or using specific shortcuts. Lastly, the mouse can also be used by right-clicking on the cell and selecting the "Clear" option.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    A format is the design of text.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement "A format is the design of text" is false. A format refers to the arrangement, organization, or structure of text, images, or other elements in a document or file. It includes aspects such as font style, size, color, alignment, spacing, and other visual attributes. While the design of text can be a part of formatting, it does not encompass the entire concept. Formatting involves various elements and attributes that contribute to the overall presentation and appearance of a document or file.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    The default number format is General, which displays numbers the way you type them.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The default number format in most software applications is General, which means that numbers are displayed exactly as they are typed. This format does not apply any specific formatting rules or styles to the numbers. Therefore, the statement "The default number format is General, which displays numbers the way you type them" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    At times, you might need to remove, or clear, all formatting applied to a cell or range of cells.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    At times, it may be necessary to remove or clear all formatting applied to a cell or range of cells. This could be because the formatting is no longer needed or because it is interfering with the desired presentation of the data. By selecting the cell or range of cells and choosing to clear formatting, all formatting such as font styles, colors, borders, and number formats will be removed, leaving the cell or range with the default formatting. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Design view is helpful when you prepare a worksheet for printing.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Design view is not helpful when preparing a worksheet for printing. Design view is primarily used for designing and formatting the layout of a worksheet, such as adjusting column widths, adding headers and footers, and applying formatting styles. However, when it comes to printing, it is more appropriate to use the Print Preview or Page Layout view, which allow you to see exactly how the worksheet will appear when printed, including page breaks, margins, and scaling options. Therefore, the statement that Design view is helpful when preparing a worksheet for printing is false.

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that the statement "Each formula begins with a quotation (") mark" is false. The use of a quotation mark at the beginning of each formula is not a requirement or a standard practice. Formulas can begin with various characters or symbols depending on the programming language or formula syntax being used.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Formulas can include more than one operator.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because formulas in mathematics or any other field can indeed include more than one operator. Operators such as addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/) can be combined within a formula to perform multiple operations in a sequence. For example, the formula "3 + 4 * 2" includes both the addition and multiplication operators.

      &&&&

    • B.

      ????

    • C.

      ####

    • D.

      ++++

    Correct Answer
    C. ####
    Explanation
    When numbers extend beyond a cell's width in a spreadsheet, they appear as a series of hash symbols (####). This is because the cell's width is not wide enough to display the entire number, so the spreadsheet software replaces it with hash symbols to indicate that the number is too long to fit in the cell.

    Correct Answer
    A. =$A$3+$A$4
    Explanation
    When the formula =$A$3+$A$4 in cell A5 is copied to cell B7, the formula remains the same as =$A$3+$A$4. The dollar signs in front of the column and row references indicate absolute references, meaning that the formula will always refer to cell A3 and A4 regardless of where it is copied to. Therefore, when the formula is copied to cell B7, it will still refer to cell A3 and A4.

    ________ divides the worksheet window into two or four panes that you can scroll independently.

    • A.

      Zoom

    • B.

    • C.

      Manual

    • D.

      Operands

    Correct Answer
    B. Splitting
    Explanation
    Splitting is the correct answer because it refers to the action of dividing the worksheet window into two or four panes. This allows the user to scroll through each pane independently, making it easier to view and work with different sections of the worksheet simultaneously. The other options, such as zoom, manual, and operands, do not pertain to dividing the worksheet window into panes.

    Worksheet formulas consist of two components: _______ and operators.

    • A.

      Relative

    • B.

      Styles

    • C.

      Operands

    • D.

      Fill

    Correct Answer
    C. Operands
    Explanation
    Worksheet formulas consist of two components: operands and operators. The operands are the values or cell references on which the operators perform the calculation. In other words, operands are the numbers, cell references, or functions that are used in a formula to produce a result. The operators, on the other hand, are the symbols or functions that perform the mathematical or logical operations on the operands. Therefore, in order to create a formula in a worksheet, both operands and operators are required.

    A ______ cell reference adjusts to its new location when copied or moved.

    • A.

      Relative

    • B.

      Manual

    • C.

      Fill

    • D.

      Numerical count

    Correct Answer
    A. Relative
    Explanation
    A relative cell reference adjusts to its new location when copied or moved. This means that if a formula or function contains a relative cell reference, the reference will change based on its new position. For example, if a formula in cell B2 references cell A1 (=A1), when the formula is copied to cell B3, the reference will automatically adjust to cell A2 (=A2). This allows for easy replication of formulas across multiple cells without having to manually update each reference.

  • 43. 

    When you need to edit a worksheet with many formulas, you can specify _____ calculation, which lets you determine when Excel calculates the formulas.

    • A.

      Zoom

    • B.

      Styles

    • C.

      Fill

    • D.

      Manual

    Correct Answer
    D. Manual
    Explanation
    When you need to edit a worksheet with many formulas, you can specify manual calculation, which lets you determine when Excel calculates the formulas. This means that Excel will not automatically recalculate the formulas when you make changes to the worksheet. Instead, you have control over when the calculations are performed, allowing you to make multiple edits without waiting for Excel to recalculate after each change. This can be useful when working with large datasets or complex formulas, as it saves time and improves efficiency.

      Operands

    • B.

      Numerical count

    • C.

      Relative

    • D.

      Styles

    Correct Answer
    B. Numerical count
    Explanation
    The term "numerical count" accurately describes the calculation that lists how many of the selected cells contain numbers. This calculation counts the cells that have numerical values and provides a count of those cells. The other options, such as operands, relative, and styles, do not accurately describe this specific calculation.
