G Guest Jan 28, 2006 #1 Hi, I have a range of 10 numbers. How can I get the sum of the 3 highest numbers in a range?
G goober Jan 28, 2006 #3 One way is =LARGE(B2:B11,1) =LARGE(B2:B11,2) =LARGE(B2:B11,3) put these formulas in A1, A2 and A3. B2:B11 is your 10 numbers you wish to search. hope it helps.

G Guest Jun 8, 2006 #5 This was helpful. I am doing the same thing but will have ranges that are not the same. IE: Looking to sum the top 20 when some have 25#s & others have less than 20. Halp!

B Bob Phillips Jun 8, 2006 #6 =SUM(LARGE(A1:A100,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&MIN(20,COUNT(A1:A100)))))) which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not just Enter. -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct)
