Conditional Formatting Bottom 'n' percent
Greetings,
I am trying to find a formula to use with Conditional Formatting to highlight the bottom (and top) 33% of a list of numbers. I have it set right now where it will highlight the Bottom 4 actual numbers (ie =M4<=SMALL($M$2:$M$11,4)), but I need it for percent. Example below. Can anyone help? In the example below Eric and Ed are the bottom 33% of the scores (lowest 2 out of 6). I need a form for cond formatting which will highlisht those two. John 34 Bill 23 Eric 12 Sally 22 Jane 43 Ed 9 |

Conditional Formatting Bottom 'n' percent
Try this:
Assuming no empty cells within the range. For the bottom 33%: =M4<=PERCENTILE($M$2:$M$11,0.33) For the top 33%: =M4=PERCENTILE($M$2:$M$11,0.67) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP wrote in message ...

Conditional Formatting Bottom 'n' percent
For empty cells, change the bottom 33% to:
=AND(M4<"",M4<=PERCENTILE($M$2:$M$11,0.33)) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP wrote in message ... On Mar 5, 4:59 pm, "T. Valko" wrote: Try this: Assuming no empty cells within the range.
