Excel – Rank Formula for Multiple Fields

by jrowl41280aol . Updated 23 years, 6 months ago

OK, here’s the issue.

I need to use a ranking formula in Excel that will do 1 Rank for 3 seperate fields. I’m not an Excel expert, so the formula I’m using works on individual fields, but when I use it for all fields I have 2 phantom ranks.

Here’s the basics

Right now it looks like this

A B

22.00% 8
41.00% 2
52.00% 1

37.00% 5
12.00% 9
18.00% 10

29.00% 6
31.00% 7
10.00% 11

As you can see it skips 2 fields.

Now what you don’t seein the spaces between the 2 groups there is 1 blank line, and 1 total for that grouping.

Now this is the short version because the rankings covers 32 percentages.

Here’s the exact formula I’m using:

=RANK(G4,G4:G13:G16:G26:G29:G39,0)

What am I doing wrong?
What do I need to change?
What formula will work for what I need it to do and get rid of those 2 phantom ranks for me?

Thanks,
Jeff
