Dear Khushi,

                       If you can calculate A,B,C,D in Excel sheet independently,  then you can find the value of total expression is coming as exact 0.

B= SumM/count

C= SumP/count
D=SumC/Count

B+C+D=(SumM + SumP + SumC)/count=SumT/count = A

B+C+D=A => B+C+D-A=0

Hi,

The above explanation is correct.

Conceptually the value of (B+C+D) - A will be 0. So none of the if condition will be true. Therefore the value of Z will be 0.

Even if you consider two decimal places in all division operations as mentioned in question you will get

A= 222.46

B = 72.36

C = 72.96

D = 77.13

(B+C+D) - A = -0.01

Here also none of the if condition will be true. Therefore the value of Z will be 0.
