QUESTION 4\/15 Based on the values in Cells B77:B81, what function can automatically return the value in Cell C77? B C 76 Sales 77 7941,020 78 72179854 80 912811,020 Image not displaying? =Highest() =Top() =Max() =Biggest() =Ceiling()<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The Correct Answer and Explanation is:<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The correct answer is: =MAX()<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In Excel, the function that returns the largest numeric value<\/strong> in a range of cells is the =MAX()<\/code><\/strong> function. Based on the values provided in cells B77 to B81<\/strong>, we can observe the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • B77: $794<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • B78: $721<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • B79: $854<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • B80: $912<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • B81: $1,020<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    Among these, the maximum value is $1,020<\/strong>, which appears in cell B81<\/strong> and is also shown in cell C77<\/strong>. To return the value in C77<\/strong> (which is $1,020) automatically using a function based on the values in B77:B81, the correct function to use is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    =MAX(B77:B81)\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    Why Other Options Are Incorrect:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • =Highest()<\/strong>: This is not a valid Excel function<\/strong>. Excel does not recognize =Highest()<\/code> as a formula.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • =Top()<\/strong>: This is also not a valid Excel function<\/strong>. While “Top” might be used in natural language or in pivot tables conceptually, it is not an actual Excel function.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • =Biggest()<\/strong>: This is another invalid function<\/strong>. Excel doesn’t support this formula syntax.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • =Ceiling()<\/strong>: While this is a valid Excel function, it is used to round numbers up to the nearest multiple of a specified significance<\/strong>, not to find the largest number in a range. For example, =CEILING(721,100)<\/code> would return 800, not the maximum value in the list.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      Summary:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      The function =MAX()<\/code> is designed specifically for this purpose: to find the maximum (or largest) value in a list or range of numbers<\/strong>. In this case, it would correctly return $1,020<\/strong>, matching the value shown in Cell C77.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
