Default find combination of cells that equal a sum

A friend of mine asked me this question and I have no idea how to do this

Would there by chance be a function in Excel where you can choose a range of
cells with an amount in each cell and see if any combination of those cells
added up to a certain dollar amount? Say, I have a range of data that adds
up to $1,536,211.26, but I'm trying to see if any of the cells in that range
add up to $12,455.98.
