Excel Business Functions - Functions everyone should know - Excel Essentials Training

Posted on: 08/18/2023

Did you know that there are over 500 Functions in Excel? In this short video, part of my Excel Essentials Training Course, we look at the seven business functions I use all the time, and every Excel user should use these functions. Functions with one argument shown include SUM, AVERAGE, MAX MIN, and MEDIAN. Functions with two arguments shown include LARGE and SMALL. We will look at the difference between a formula and a function.

Functions with one argument

SUM
AVERAGE
MAX
MIN
MEDIAN

Functions with two arguments

LARGE
SMALL

Both LARGE and SMALL functions have two arguments since they have one comma.
