SPREADSHEET ASSIGNMENT
A. The formula = F3/ $F$9 was entered in cell G3
(i) What type of cell referencing was used $F$9 Answer = Absolute referencing
(ii) Explain why this type of cell referencing was used – Absolute Referencing is used so
that when the formula is copied down column (example G4, G5) the cell referencing
$F$9 does not change. This ensures that each formula always divides by the total
number of workers (116,300) in cell F9
B. A pie chart is to be created. Each Sector slice of the pie Chart will represent the total
number of workers in ten various age group and also indicate the name of the age
group.
State the data range and the category labels range to be used to create the pie chart.
Date Range: F3:F8 (Total number of workers for each sector)
Category labels Range: A3:A8 (Names of the sectors)
C. Write the function to find the following
(i) The average of the sector totals
Sector totals are in F3 to F8, so answer = AVERAGE (F3:F8)
(ii) The Maximum of the age group totals
Age group totals are in B9 to E9, so Answer = Max (B9:E9)
