    Unhappy Percentile...IF

    Help...

    I would like to use the percentile function on column B, for example,dependant upon the entry on column A.

    e.g. So if A = Red the percentile (B:B,0.95)

    What would the formula for this be?

    Thanks
    Michelle

    Percentile( array, nth_percentile )

    A1 = percentile (B:B,0.95)

    not very clear, following formula might solve your problem

    =IF(A1="Red",PERCENTILE(B:B,0.95),"")

    Regards.

    Perhaps something like

    =PERCENTILE(IF(A1:A12="red",B1:B12,""),0.95)

    Entered as an array , shift ctrl then Enter


    Regards
