Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.

Hi, Look on toolbar "Tools", "Solver".
Back solve for you value of "Y"
If you want a macro record what you do !.
