hi

i'm having values in multiples of 100 in COL A.
i want the quotients in COL B [divisor 500] & COL C [divisor 100]
explained as under:

COL "A" - COL "B" - COL "C"

100 - 0 1
200 - 0 2
500 - 0 5
600 - 1 1
700 - 1 2
1000 - 1 5
1200 - 2 2
1500 - 2 5
1600 - 3 1
1900 - 3 4
2000 - 3 5
2100 - 4 1
2500 - 4 5
50000 - 99 5
.
.
.
so on

Try the following formulas for cell B1 and C1 respectivele:

=INT((A1-1)/500)

=CHOOSE(1+MOD(A1,500)/100,5,1,2,3,4)

Copy them down as far as needed

Hope this helps / Lars-Åke

There may be many solutions. I don't know if this is what your
teacher had in mind, but this is what I came up:

B1: =INT( (A1-1) / 500 )

C1: =INT( ( MOD(A1-1, 500) + 1 ) / 100 )

I suspect the latter can be simplified. I didn't give it more than a
moment's thought.

Let me know what grade I get ;-).

Any particular reason you want, e.g., 2000 as 3x500 + 5x100 rather
than 4x500?

Anyway, try these formulas. With amount in A3,

C3: =INT(MOD(A3-100,500)/100)+1
B3: =INT((A3-C3*100)/500)
