Thumbs up Answer: calculate percentage of cells that have any value

Here's how you can calculate the percentage of cells that have any value in a column:
  1. First, select the column of numbers that you want to analyze.
  2. Next, click on the Home tab in the Excel ribbon.
  3. Then, click on the Find & Select button in the Editing group.
  4. From the drop-down menu, select Go To Special.
  5. In the Go To Special dialog box, select Constants and uncheck all other options.
  6. Click OK to close the dialog box. This will select all cells in the column that have a value.
  7. Now, look at the bottom right corner of the Excel window. You should see a status bar that shows the number of cells that are selected.
  8. Divide this number by the total number of cells in the column to get the percentage of cells that have a value.

For example, if you have a column of 100 cells and 75 of them have a value, the percentage of cells with a value would be
Formula:
75/100*100 
%.
