Finding most Repetitive Name in a range

[vij8y]

Hi All,

I need help to resolve this scenario. I have attached a screen shot of my table with the range name

table.jpg

'qtr' is the name of 1st colum range
'con' is the name of 2nd column range
'pc' is the name of 3rd column range

What I need to have is, I need find the most repetitive text in the 3rd range with few conditions.
The conditions are,
The quarter should be "Q2"
Country is "India"

Here is the formula which I used to find the most repetitive word in a range:

=INDEX(pc,MODE(MATCH(pc,pc,0)))

But this does not have any condition applied.

I need to know how to ignore the cells in the range "pc" if the country is NOT "India" and quarter is NOT Q1 or Q3 or Q4.

Any help would be great.


Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Try

 =IF(AND(qtr="Q2", con="India"),INDEX(pc,MODE(MATCH(pc,pc,0))), "")  

[Bob Phillips]

Try this array formula

=INDEX(pc,MODE(MATCH(IF((qtr="Q2")*(con="India"),pc,ROW(pc)),IF((qtr="Q2")*(con="India"),pc,ROW(pc)),0)))

This worked like a charm! Thank you very much Bob!

An alternative array formula

=INDEX(pc,MATCH(MAX(COUNTIFS(qtr,"Q2",con,"India",pc,pc)),COUNTIFS(qtr,"Q2",con,"India",pc,pc),0))
