Drop High and Low before calculation
Another way that seems to do what you want.
=SUM(LARGE(A1:A5,{2,3,4}))
Returns 14 in your example. You give 13 as the correct sum, however you say
to drop the 5.5 and the 3 and then you added the 3 in your example.
Probably just a typo??

Hello-
I need to take 5 numbers (each in separate cells) (they could be the
same),
drop the highest and lowest and then add the remaining 3.
Can you help me?
5.5
4.5
4
3
5.5
=====
drop the 5.5 and 3
add the 4.5 + 3 + 5.5
total = 13
Thank you
