Median with 2 criteria

Hello, 

 

I have been trying to calculate using median IF (and) function as i have two criterias but i keep getting a #value error or a #num area

 

=Median(IF(and(Range=criteria 1, Range = criteria 2, Range to calculate if true,)))

  • lianaz385 

    =MEDIAN(IF((Range1=criteria 1)*( Range2 =criteria 2),Range to calculate if true))

     

    You can try this formula. Enter the formula with ctrl+shift+enter if you don't work with Office 365 or Excel 2021.

     

    In my understanding there should be Range1 and Range2 for criteria 1 and criteria2 unless you want eiter criteria1 or criteria2 for the same range. Then you can try this formula:

     

    =MEDIAN(IF((Range=criteria 1)+( Range =criteria 2),Range to calculate if true))

      Hello ! appreciate your response!

      Ive tried this however, I received a #Name? issue. I've tried to copy and paste the figures and it was fine.. therefore I'm assuming the format of the cell itself is correct so I'm not sure why theres a name issue. For all the range I have included the name of the Columns and for the criteria i have tried typing with "" and also referencing to a cell but it still doesnt work

        Does it work when you enter the sample data from the screenshot in your worksheet? Otherwise can you attach a screenhot of your worksheet without sensitive data which shows all the criteria, range and the formula you've applied?
