What I Need to Know
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you
master the Advanced Techniques using Microsoft Excel. The scope of this module
permits it to be used in many different learning situations. The language used
recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to
follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them
can be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.
Choose the letter of the best answer. Write your answer on a separate sheet of
paper.
4. Which among the following is not part of the syntax for AVERAGEIF?
a. Average range
b. Range
c. Logical test
d. Criteria
What’s In
In our previous lesson, we have discussed Microsoft Word as one of the powerful
applications of Microsoft Office Suites. Microsoft Word has become widely used
because of its features which people use to perform various tasks. One of its
features is Mail Merge which enables users to efficiently create documents with the
same content but may have different recipients. With mail merge, users were able
to create documents like letters, e-mail messages, envelopes, labels, and directory.
Besides Mail Merge, another feature of Microsoft Word is its ability to insert
different kinds of materials such as pictures, clipart, shapes, SmartArt, chart, and
screenshot that help enhance a word document. With these materials, users were
able to create a layout based on their likings.

What is It
What is a spreadsheet?
It is a software application that enables a user to save, sort and manage data in an
arranged form of rows and columns.
The formula
automatically
recalculates when the
value of a referenced cell
is changed.
Active Cell – the currently selected cell in a spreadsheet and is
indicated by a bold outline that surrounds the cell
- B5 is the active cell
Examples of Formula
For example, you want to find the total ratings of the teachers in terms of
the product’s quality. The formula to use to get the total ratings of the
teachers is shown below.
Sometimes the use of sum_range is optional just like in the example below.
The formula in the following example will add the total scores of the students
which are higher than 10. Students with scores lower than ten will not be
added.
AVERAGEIF - Returns the average (arithmetic mean) of all the cells in a
range that meet a given criteria. AVERAGEIF function has the following
syntax:
For example, you want to get the average of the students’ ratings in terms of
the product’s quality. The formula to use to get the average rating of the
students is shown below.
COUNTIF - Counts the number of cells within a range that meet a single
criterion that you specify. COUNTIF function has the following syntax:
COUNTIF(range, criteria)
If you want to count the number of students who got grades of 90 and above
in the first quarter you can use the formula below.
The example below shows the formula on how to count the number of
students who got grades of 85 and above from the first to the second
quarter.
IF – This function is one of the most popular functions in Excel. It can
perform a logical test and returns one value if TRUE, and another value if
FALSE. The following is the syntax of IF function:
The table below shows the formula to display “Passed” if the student’s
average is 75 and above, and “Failed” if the average is below 75. Since the
cell reference H2 has the value of 73.6, “Failed” will be displayed. But not in
the case of cell references H3 and H4, since their values are higher than
75 “Passed” will be displayed.
What’s More
Direction: Using the tables below create the formula that will solve the given
problems. Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
With Excel formulas and functions, many operations and tasks are performed
automatically. Users can type numbers or value directly into the formula or use cell
references, so the formula can use any data found in the referenced cells. Some of
the many functions of MS Excel are SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, MIN, MAX, SUMIF,
AVERAGEIF, COUNTIF, and IF. These functions are pre-defined, it means that
these functions are already available in MS Excel.
What I Can Do
Answer the following questions and write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
1. What is the importance of using Microsoft Excel?
2. Determine other instances where you can use the COUNTIF, SUMIF, and
AVERAGEIF functions.
Modified True or False: Write TRUE if the statement is correct. If the statement is
false, change the underlined word or phrase to make the whole statement correct.
Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
Answer the following questions and write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
1. List at least five benefits of using Microsoft Excel.
