    Excel Formula Help

    Set of Data
    RESULT A
    RESULT B
    HIGH RESULT B OR AVERAGE A+B
    23.16
    23.42
    23.42
    23.54
    23.1
    23.32
    22.96
    23.1
    23.1

    I need help on the formula for the High Result B or Average A+B box.
    Struggling for hours to make out a formula that will choose the High B result and average A and B if B is lower than A.
    I only have a basic to moderate knowledge of Excel, appreciate any help on this.
    CHEERS

    You need to use a conditional function. See the Excel help on the if function.

    If(logical test,Value if true,Value if false)

    =IF(B2>A2,B2,AVERAGE(A2:B2))

    or alternatively....
    =MAX(B2;AVERAGE(A2:B2))

    I used this, another add to it is how do I round up the averages to 2 decimal places.

    if I get in the average
    22.275, how do I get the formula to bring to 22.28 instead
    I used this formula
    =IF(B2>A2,B2,AVERAGE(A2:B2))


    A2----22.77B2---22.6 Split I want
    22.69What I get----22.685


    Thanks for your help!
