    COUNTIFS avoiding double counting

    Hi,

    I have a spreadsheet that is set up basically as follows:

    1: Gender
    2: Age Group
    3: Red
    4: Green
    5: Yellow
    6: Orange
    7: Any of the above

    I'm trying to count all the favorite colors controlling for gender and age group, but some survey respondents selected a multiple favorite colors and/or any of the above. What is the best way to count this without double counting? I'm trying to count the number of men age 20-30 whose favorite color is anything EXCEPT Red.

    Thanks!

    Hi, welcome to the forum

    Maybe something like this...
    =countifs(age-range,">=20",age-range,"<=30",color-range,"<>red")
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
