    Find what values equal a total

    Say I have a list of various values that add up to 100. I also have
    two subtotals, say 35 and 65. Is there a formula or a way to easily
    find which of the values would add up 35 and which would add to 65?
    Thanks.

    Insert this formula in column B, and copy down:
    =INDEX($A$1:$A$20,MATCH(100,(A1+$A$1:$A$20),0))

    The formula will return the first matching value, that adds up to 100.

    Note:
    Confirm the formula by holding down Ctrl and Shift, then hit Enter (since it's an Array formula)
