Hello,

Using the histogram function in data analysis allows me to categorize data
into specific bins by counting the number of instances the set criteria
occurs. Is there any way I can sum the results instead of counting them?

Thanks,
April

Use separate formulas that refer to your bins.

The first frequency is the count of numbers that are <=bin1.

The 2nd frequency is the count of numbers that are bin1 and <=bin2

So, assuming your bins are something like this:

E3 = 10
E4 = 20
E5 = 30

The first sum would be something like:

=SUMIF(A1:A20,"<="&E3)

The 2nd sum would be something like:

=SUMIF(A1:A20,""&E3)-SUMIF(A1:A20,""&E4)

That 2nd pattern is followed until the last bin then you need one last sum
formula:

=SUMIF(A1:A20,""&last_bin)
