You may need to do some revision on your knowledge of algebra. =A/2+B/2+C/2
is the same as =(A+B+C)/2.

The reason you are getting a different answer from what you expected is that
you have asked a different question.
The answer 7962.36 comes not from (8390.60+5127.10+7940.44) / 2 but from
(8309.60 + 2488.02 + 5127.10) / 2, which were the numbers you gave in your
question. Sort out what question you are trying to ask, and then you might
get the right answer.

Hi Pete, thanks for looking into this, however this formula does not give
the
correct total. 8390.60+5127.10+7940.44 / 2 = 7962.36 (my mistake on
original
post was put total of 2cs without dividing (15924.72)

Formula is total all 2cs then divding total by 2, I need it to divide
individually

i.e. 8390.6/2 = 4154.8
5127.10/2 = 2563.55
7940.44/2 = 3970.22

Total = 10688.57

Try this:

=SUMIF(B1:B4,"2C",A1:A4)/2

Adjust the ranges to suit your real data.

Hope this helps.

Hi All,

I am looking for a formula that looks at a range, and if meets
criteria,
adds a selected range but actully divides each cell by 2 and gives sum
of
these totals

Example
Col A Col B

Row 1 8309.60 2C
Row 2 5000 2
Row 3 2488.02 2C
Row 4 5127.10 2C

If B1:b4="2c" add cells in Col A and divide by 2 then total (in this
case
would be 10688.57 NOT 7962.36)

Hope this makes sense.
