Each of my spreadheets are different. Some have 15 rows and some have 5.
Therefore, if there's 15 rows I need to caculate how many out of 15 items
were present. If there are only 5 rows on my spreadsheet I would need the
same but out of 5.

You say you want 8/10, but your example shows 3/5, or 6/10...

One way:

=SUM(A1:A5)/COUNT(A1:A5)

If you want to always see 10ths, use Format/Cells/Number/Custom ?/10

Hello. I'm using Excel 2000 and need help finding a formula to calculate the
ratio in columns and rows.

For example: I'm using 1's and 0's ( 1 if the item is present and 0 if it is
not present). So, I need a formula that will show 8/10 of the items were
present. See my example below.

Column C
1
0
1
0
1
=3 (sum)
=3/5 (ratio)

Thanks for your help!!!! Kelly
