How to Find the Range in Microsoft Excel

Find the maximum value of the data. To do this, pick a cell where you want the maximum to display (for example, maybe two cells above where you'll put the range). Type {{{1}}} and specify the cells you're trying to find the range for. For example, you might write {{{1}}} or {{{1}}}. Press ↵ Enter

Find the minimum value of the data. To do this, pick a cell where you want the minimum to display (for example, maybe one cell above where you'll put the range, below the maximum). Type Min and specify the cells again. For example, you might write MIN(J7:T1) or MIN(A1:A500). Press ↵ Enter

Find the Range. Type = in the call for the range (possibly below the other two). Type in the cell number that you used for typing the maximum number first - for example, B1. Then type a -. Type in the minimum cell number. For example, B2. Your formula should read something like: =B1-B2 Press ↵ Enter
