Which combination of numbers from row 1 forms the sum of one of the numbers from row 2
I don't know if there is a solution for this but I'm looking for a way to group numbers that correspond to the sum of other numbers. What do I mean:
The rows consist of one (1) row of a set of numbers and one (1) row with the result of the sum of some numbers from row 1.
How do I find out which part (the sum) of the set of numbers from row 1 is equal to one of the numbers in row 2.

- Fun2HikeCopper ContributorThanks for your quick response. It seems that your suggestion may be the solution. However, when entering the last formula, I get the message that there is an error in the formula.
The last formula is:
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(ROWS($1:1),IF(INDEX(MOD(INT((List2-1)/2^(TRANSPOSE(List1)-1)),2),MATCH(TRUE,MMULT(MOD)" (INT((List2-1)/2^(TRANSPOSE(Lijst1)-1)),2),Range1)=$C$2,0),),TRANSPOSE(List1)),0)),"X", "")
What could this be?
By the way, I have a Dutch version of Excel. Maybe something wrong notation?- NikolinoDEGold ContributorNederlands
=ALS(ISGETAL(VERGELIJKEN(RIJEN($1:1);ALS(INDEX(REST(INTEGER((List2-1)/2^(TRANSPONEREN(List1)-1));2);VERGELIJKEN(WAAR;PRODUCTMAT(REST(INTEGER((List21)/2^(TRANSPONEREN(List1)-1));2);Range1)=$C$2;0););TRANSPONEREN(List1));0));"X";"")
don't forget after inserting the formula press Shift + Ctrl + Enter keys together.
