Setup your table like this:

List the lower boundary of each range in column B:

..............B...............C
1...........0...............0
2...........1..............50
3..........20.............45

A1 = 26

=VLOOKUP(A1,B1:C3,2)

Or:

=LOOKUP(A1,B1:B3,C1:C3)

I want to use a VLOOKUP function to find data in a table that includes
ranges. Example:

# of tables Cost per table
1 - 19 $50.00
20 - 39 $45.00

If I then type 26 in a cell, $45.00 would appear. I can then have a simple
multiplication formula in the next cell to calculate total cost.
