Is there a way to make a column add only certain amounts that correspond with
a particular number in another column. For example:

I would like for numbers in column B add if they have a number 4 in the same
row in column A. Make that amount show in a cell in column C.

Thanks for any help!

in c1
=if(A1=4,B1,"")

then drag fill down the column

another interpretation would be

=sumif(A:A,4,B:B)

=SUMIF(A1:B999,"=4",B1:B999)

Put this in a cell in C column and extend the 999 if there are more rows

How about a formula in column C like:

=if(a2=4,b2,"') and copy that to all the relevant rows in column C,

or if you want a single cell in column C to add up all the cells in
column B that have a 4 in column A:

=sumif(A:A,4,B:B)

Good luck.
