SUM

Sums the contents of cells.

Syntax:

SUM(number1; number2; ... number30)

number1 to number30 are up to 30 numbers or ranges of numbers whose sum is to be calculated.

SUM can also be used to sum cells where a specified condition is true - see Conditional Counting and Summation.

Example:

SUM(2; 3; 4) returns 9, because 2+3+4 = 9.
SUM(B1:B3) where cells B1, B2, B3 contain 1.1, 2.2, 3.3 returns 6.6.
