    percentage needed of total

    Running some (about 80) mechanical test, I need to always show the current passing percentage.
    How would I do this in the easiest way when the results is posted either "P" or "F".

    Thanks ahead for any help or suggestion, I really appreciate it very much.

    Why do I get a percentage error here? It should be 50% (5P,5F)

    Re: percentage needed of total

    [Solved] by doing the following =COUNTIF(E2:E100,"P")/COUNTA(E2:E100)
