In this example, we have a list of people in Column A, and a list of hours in Column B:
PERSON | HOURS |
---|---|
Dave | 2 |
Britney | 3 |
Britney | 1 |
Dave | 4 |
Britney | 2 |
Dave | 3 |
To get all of Britney's hours, the formula is:
=SUMIF(A2:A7, "Britney", B2:B7)
The first part (A2:A7) indicates the data range to look for the value, the second part ("Britney") is the value to look for, and the third part (B2:B7) are the values to sum up.
This formula will show a result of 6, meaning Britney has 6 total hours in this dataset.
