    Question Need formula to populate text in anoher cell

    Trying to create a formula that will give a text grade. example
    =SUM(30*a2)+(20*b2)+(20*c2)+(25*d2)+(5*e2)+5*f2)) this formula should give a total of grade precentages.

    =IF(X9>90%, “A”, IF (X9>80%, “B”, IF(X9>70%, “C”,IF(X9>60,”D”,IF(X9>0%, “F”, Incomplete))))) This formula should poplulate last colmun to a letter grade. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    maybe
    =LOOKUP(X9,{0,1,61,71,81,91},{"Incomplete","F","D","C","B","A"})
    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    There is a little star ( ADD REPUTATION ) below those person who helped you. Click it to say your "PRIVATE APPRECIATION TO THEIR EFFORT ON THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS "

    Regards,

    Unfortunately that formula is not working. If you add 3 columns and you want the last column to give a text grade from percentage numbers added together, is there another way?

    Re: Need formula to populate text in anoher cell

    Prior to your example X9 is the percentage say X9 is =84%
    the formula i gave will give you The letter B because its greater than 80%

    put it in another column.

    if you have a sample workbook maybe we can look at it better and what is the exact table of grades for that
    lookup.xls
