What I am trying to do with the function is compare efficiencies by day. If the production line produces 95% or high of the plan I want it to count 1. Attached is a basic example of my spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is very large and adding extra rows is extremely time consuming and difficult due to the other sheets linked to this sheet. If actual production hasn't happened yet then the cell will read "" not blank also.

You may use array formula (Ctrl+Shift+Enter to enter) as

=SUM(--IFERROR(B4:T4/B3:T3>0.95,0))

It's in B6 in attached

    Unfortunately this didn't work either. Row 4 contains an if formula that reads another sheet. The if formula returns " " if the cell in the other sheet is blank (if(isblank(Sheet1!A4),"",Sheet1!A4) for example. That is what is making this so difficult. SergeiBaklan

      Adam_Speerstra , if in row 3 is number and in 4 is empty string, in 5 shall be #VALUE! which calculated by formula correctly. Perhaps you could give a sample of what exactly not works? You may type into the cell ="" to imitate returned by IF empty string
