How to operate the excel sum shortcut key

Excel summation shortcut key operation

There are two commonly used summation shortcut keys in Excel:

• Formula calculation Sum:

  • Select the cell area to be summed
  • Enter "=", and then enter the function "SUM("
  • Enter the cell to be summed cell range and end with a parenthesis
  • Press Enter

For example, to sum the numbers in cells A1 to A5, enter the formula "=SUM (A1:A5)".

• ##Quick sum:

  Select the cell range to be summed
  • Click the "SUM" button on the toolbar (with the Greek letter Σ)
  • Excel will automatically insert the "=SUM()" function and find the sum

Example:

To sum the numbers in cells A1 through A5 using QuickSum, follow these steps:

Check Cells A1:A5
1. Click the "Sum" button
2. Excel will insert the formula "=SUM(A1:A5)" in cell A6 and display the sum

Tip:

If you require a continuous range of cells, you can use a colon (:) as the separator, such as SUM(A1:A5)
If you require summing non-contiguous cell ranges, you can use comma (,) as the separator, such as SUM(A1,A3,A5)
• You can use the sum shortcut key in conjunction with other functions. For example, AVERAGE, COUNT, MIN, MAX, etc.
