3 largest numbers
I have a column of numbers (eg 100 numbers) and I need to have the 3 largest
numbers in 3 different cells. The largest one can be done through the max function. What about the other two? Please note that these numbers can be different from time to time, therefore I need a clever way to do it. Preferably, please show me a way without adding columns etc, using formulas as much as possible. Thanx! |
3 largest numbers
Use LARGE(array,1) for the largest, LARGE(array,2) for the second largest, etc.
If you dislike using functions, then sort the array descending and pull-off the first three entries -- Gary's Student "Petros" wrote: I have a column of numbers (eg 100 numbers) and I need to have the 3 largest numbers in 3 different cells.
