#NAME? error problem
- Nov 09, 2021
Wrong formula
=H5\I5
Right formula
=H5/I5
The difference is with slash and backslash.
Use slash "/ ", not backslash "\"
Hope I was able to help you with this info.

If you divide a number by 0 or an empty cell (e.g. "= A1 / B1", where B1 is empty or zero),
you will get the error message "# DIV / 0!".
You can't divide with an empty divisor or 0, as I learned at school (a long time ago :).
The error message confuses sometimes the user.
That doesn't have to be, you can use this formula instead of the simple division:
= IF (ISERROR (A1 / A2), "0", A1 / A2)
or = IFERROR (A1 / A2, "0")
there are a few variants.
This is how you get the desired quotient (result).
Enjoy excel 🙂
