    Formula: Return Pro Rata (proportionate) Value

    Hello OzGrid

    Hoping someone may be able to help me here, i have the following table and am trying to work out the formula to put in column C to pro rata the value of cell A1 against the values in column B1:5 so it appears as i've shown below....

    Code:
     A         B          C
    600      10000      400
      .        5000       200 
      .          0          0
      .          0          0
      .          0          0
    Many thanks for your help.

    Re: Formula To Pro Rata Value

    Hi,

    VBasically you need the A1 part of the formula to read A$1$

    Your post is however a little misleading, you need two numbers to provide a ration and one more number to apply that ratio to. You only seem to have two numbers??

    =$A$1*(B1/SUM($B$1:$B$5))
