multiplies by the number inputed

for example

drop down 1 CAT. C
drop down 2 cl sea
this means 0.45%

inputed number lets say is 13

the equation then should be 0.45% * 13

Hi Ridash

First create some named ranges. I named the complete range of your table
as Table, the whole of the top line of the table as Type and the whole
of the first column as Category using InsertNameDefine and pointing to
the relevant range of cells in each case.

With the inputs from your dropdown selections in A1, A2 and A3 in cell
A4 enter
=A3*INDEX(Table,MATCH(A1,Category,0),MATCH(A2,Type ,0))
