If AND Statement
 

I have a number in Cell A1 and A2 for example.

I want a formula that says, that IF A1 and A2 are both Zero, then to place a
zero in the the cell, if false divide A1/A2. Here is the formula i used but
it obviously doesn't work

=IF(A1=0 and A2=0,0,A1/A2)

If AND Statement
 

Use = IF( AND(A1=0,A2=0),0,A1/A2)

What you need is this:

=IF(AND(A1=0,A2=0),0,A1/A2)

Hope this helps.

Hi

When A1=0, then the result is zero anyway, except A2=0 too.
When A1<0, but A2=0, then dividing retuns an error with checking you
wanted.

Probably you need a formula
=IF(A2=0,0,A1/A2)

You must take into account A2=0

=IF(NOT(A2),0,A1/A2)

=IF(NOT(A2),0,A1/A2)

Can't you therefore say
=IF(A2,A1/A2,0) ?
