Default How to determine the value?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to determine the value?
There is a list of values under column A
191,189,183,177,175,171,167,165,155,153,151
There is given numbe in cell B1, 177
I would like to display 175 in cell C1, which is maximum number within the
list less than 177.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Eric

Hi,

Try something like this

=MAX(IF(A1:A10<C1,A1:A10,""))

This formula is an array so press Shift+Ctrl+Enter to enter it.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Thanks,
